Pins and needles after walking in cold

Pins and needles after walking in cold

Hello,
I am not diagnosed but have posted a few times with sensory questions. My only symptom since this all started in august is pins and needles in fingers and feet. MRI is clean. Was told by three neuros that it could be unexplained parathesis or maybe anxiety or maybe peripheral.
Anyway, I am in NYC today for work and walking around all day in the cold. Each time I come indoors, I have intense pins and needles throughout my fingers on both hands. I am not anxious in any way. I'm fact, this is my favorite place on earth an I am so happy. I am wondering if those of you with a diagnosis has this happen to you when you are exposed to cold? Thanks so much

Forgot to add that the pins and needles last hours. Not just when I get inside.
Thanks!

has anyone checked you for Raynaud's Syndrome?

Please look up Raynauds disease.  or wait Sarah beat me to it! Especially if you notice your hands turn blueish, then white, then red as they warm up.  It's an annoying thing!  I can't even cut veggies that have come out of the fridge, I have to wrap tissue around a can of pop etc.   This is not really related to MS, but instead a circulation disorder that it fairly common, and usually benign, but can be related to some other diseases such as autoimmune issues.

I had this weird symptom that is kind of similar to Raynauds where in the cold my blood was clumping together I can't remember what it is called, but it has now gone away after my stem cell transplant. Also had a rash with it.   I don't have MS btw, but I post here ;)

That is very interesting! Thank you for the info about Raynauds. However, my tingling is intermittent often...not just with the cold weather. Today is the first day that I have noticed the tingling was exascerbated by te cold. So, would Raynauds still apply?
