    Random question, yes I know-- but it's starting to get really bad- no matter what I put on my hands (palms), they peel, they're blotchy when you touch them (like an oilly sticker), always cold etc.

    Anyone else have a similar problem? Any help?

    Reynauds syndrome...?? Yesterday i told a fellow Mondial owner whose battery kept dying to ....buy a new battery! I felt better about giving him that advice than medical advice here.
    My wife suffers from some of those symptoms you mention, see a Dr.

    It does sound like Raynaud's although a variety of other vascular problems (such as auto-immune probs) present like that; that's why I suggest a vascular surgeon, or maybe your family doc (bet he'll send you to a vascular man).

    They have medications that help the blood to flow in a "more ordered" fashion, (not really blood thinners like coumadin), as well as physical therapy.

    I'm not a vascular surgeon, I just play one on F-Chat.

    P.S. does it seem temperature related, or made worse with vibration (like chainsaw)?

    Carpal tunnel also comes to mind.

    my dad has poor circulation in his hands, they get really cold when its cold out im not sure about the skin peeling or anything. I stuck both my middle fingers in a light socket when i was younger and i fryed the nerves and growth tendions in one (yes that means its crooked) and that finger gets really cold when its cold out. The only reason i lived was b/c i stuck both fingers in completeing the circuit.

    Absolutely not true!
    Poor blood flow can result in cold feet but the reverse is not necessarily true.
    One can get cold feet due to many easily reversible factors.

    Kenny, listen to Bruce; last summer, after the big party he had, the doctor cut off his foot and he had to use the mirror from the TR as a prosthetic for a week before they put his foot back on... Seriously, see a doctor IMMEDIATELY. Forget that "health center" bullsh!t, go see a primary care physician and let him point you in the right direction...


    Clifford, you forgot 'cock doc'... :)
