Tired..


Soo, i just realized that i have another symptom and i didnt even realize it.

when my hand is raised the palm side looks totally normal.  completely normal looking color.  but if i drop my arm down to my waist, it almost immediately changes colors.  now most people it will as blood returns, but mine is EXTREMELY splotchy.  i've noticed it from time to time but never seen a connection between what causes it and never thought anything of it.  it looks very weird and i will get a picture of it as soon as i get home.  

does anyone else's hands do this?

I've never really looked at my hands, but my feet get splotchy a lot, usually on the days when they feel swollen, but they aren't actually swollen.

Unfortunately, when I try to bring something like that up with a doctor, thinking of it as a mere "clue" that might mean something to him/her, she/he reacts as if I'm a hypochondriac complaining left and right about everything.  They view every remark as a "complaint" that I must think I'm suffering terribly from.

We think they want to know everything, but really they want us to shut up about any detail that isn't practically an emergency.   They insist on limiting the info. they receive.

I haven't had the hand phenomenon, but then I live in dim light and try not to look much at myself.   Reactions to tap water fumes do make me hot and make my face bright red though.

Wow that is weird..
Have you ever seen a Vascular Specialist ? It does look like a circulation problem. No idea but I will research some more Jas  Smile
