Nothing but sympathy for you. I have peripheral neuropathy in my hands and feet and they are both like always cold. I've been trying to find my fingerless gloves all morning as a matter of fact. and have my feet wrapped in blankets right now.

I did. She responded:

"Thanks for writing! I will look into a way to have you complete the survey, but rest assured that your hit will not be rejected. I will be back in touch once I solve the issue."
​

And thanks for the advice, @autonomnom !!

Fingerless gloves do nooooothing for me. I DO think I've got those little "heat packs" someplace though, the ones crossing guards and hikers use. I'm going to find them! High five for dumb cold limb problem solidarity.

magnesium is important for regulating body temperature (might not help for you, but it can't hurt!)
i eat a lot of hot soups and drink hot beverages. in the past, i've warmed a brick in the stove, wrapped it in flannel and kept my feet on it. could work for hands as well.

 

[ChristopherASA]

@Despairagus and @FrenchToast: I don't see how you two can even work. That would dive me CRAZY!!! Is there no thin-glove-like product that will keep things warm?

I would like to be an associate member of your "Dumb Cold Limb Problem Solidarity." (Although I'm wondering if "... Cold Limb... s/b hyphenated or not. Hmmmm)

Brilliant! There is soooo much illness and such caused by deficiencies in our diets.

Yes I was going to suggest those "hot hands" or similar hand warmers. I have bought whole cases of them some winters. I stick those bad boys down in my boots when we go out ice fishing (though I also have some of the best insulated boots I could find because of my stupid feet) I've seen ones made specifically for feet though too.

And just a regular heating pad. I use that on my feet a lot too.

I find that my fingers and feet only stay warm if I have a hat and scarf on. I do sometimes wear silk gloves (the liners/base layers worn by skiers & motorcyclists) that help too. I've got venous insufficiency and the circulation in my feet is dreadful. I don't feel them from November until about March. That's even after moving to SC. I can type in silk gloves, so they are pretty helpful to me. I wear them a lot. (I was given real silk as a present, but polyester silk actually works reasonably well.)

I do take magnesium, I think it doesn't work for me b/c something about constricted blood vessles or some nonsense with the Raynaud's. BUT the brick idea is brilliant! I might just start throwing rocks and things in the oven when I bake during the winter. Or toaster oven? Idk. I don't like wasting energy. Maybe my hydroponic lights can heat them up and I Can rotate them.

This is a good idea I'm going to run with lol thank you

It's fine in the summer. It's just my body can't heat my fingers b/c the blood flow lessens (or something like that)

It's a cool party trick, though, b/c my fingers turn white when I'm very cold OR when I'm very very angry or upset.

I spend a lot of time with my hands inside my sleeves. Sometimes blowing hot air on them Or holding a hot coffee mug.

i live in south florida and sometimes i can't turn on the AC cuz it intensifies my pain, it kinda blows if that happens when it's really hot out
