I'm just Curious Why am always  Cold feet Cold Hands?, Yes theres a AC here, but why my family here their hands its normal.& am the only one having a cold feet cold hands always, im trying to figure it out why always cold Hands & feet, its annoying :-(

Raynaud's Syndrome can be cause cold feet and hands?
i read some article about Raynaud's Syndrome, some hypothyroid patient experiencing a cold feet cold hands of course sensitivity to the cold, if symptoms continue a cold feet cold hands Raynaud's Syndrome can be one of the reason? so thats why im always cold hands & feet? or just one of a hypothyroid symptoms only?

So far i dont feel any  strange symptoms, & i always take my medication thyrax (150mcg) every 5am,

but if my thyrax gone im gonna choose synthroid well another adjustment? how long will adjust i have no idea.

anyway im just curious about why  feeling  cold in the hands and feet always?
is anyone experiencing like a cold feet cold hands too?

I surely can relate, I posted similar question, since my thyroid was removed my hands/feet were cold like ice for wks !!  After med increase 6 wks ago, slightly getting better, but nothing to cheer about, Lol !!  

Now my body is beginning to warm up, I start burning up, sometimes sweat, like I'm sitting in an oven.  Mild cold hand/feet, body burning up.  Must be my body is adjusting to new med dose.  But my hands/feet alway's cold upon waking.      

What helps me alot is spending time outdoors in sunlight, I live in Tx so the heat helps warm me up.

Wishing you well :)
