You know that thing you get in your fingers, where the nails stay white and the fingers feel cold? Can't remember what it's called, but I have it in the last 2 fingers on my right hand, and they also feel tingly like pins and needles and I can't feel the ends of them.

Dh says "oh it'll be another symptom of your Fibro", but I'm not sure,I mentioned it the doc yesterdya when i went about my veins and she said "well they look ok"!

Do any of you get it?

Is it Raynaud's, saltire?

dh does have a lot of circulation problems/numbness, and is very sensitive to the cold.

That's it! I couldn't remember the name. I do get very sensitive to the cold and permanently have pins and needles in my left hand, but this is new symptoms on the right hand. Its not as bad as in those photos though

Mine don't go white but I am regularly woken up in the night with my fingers going sort of tingly and numb and it is quite painful. Usually my left arm but sometimes both and It only occurs during the day if I sit down to relax!

So I don't relax very often.

In the night it helps if I gently flex my fingers and bend my arms (must look like a complete loon!).
