I have been experiencing cold hands lately and was just wondering if anyone with hypothyroidism experienced this symptom. Thank you! I am going to consult my doctor about this as well.

Thanks

Cold hands can be a symptom of many things including hypothyroidism. Personally, I was born with cold hands and feet. It's good you're seeing a doctor.

I think reynaud's syndrome is associated with hypothyroidism.

Hi nygirl20...I have Hashimoto's and have had cold hands/feet for years. Everyone always laughs at me because of this. At times, they even turn blue....

[nygirl20]

Receptionist, my family laughs at me too. I have to wear gloves when I go outside and even with gloves my hands are freezing.

[receptionist]

I even wear gloves when I'm on the treadmill...fingers are always cold even though I'm sweating

[nygirl20]

Yeah it's horrible they are always cold even when the rest of your body is warm. Have your symptoms improved with medication?

OH yes, my feet and hands are freezing at the moment. I wear socks to bed. lol

[receptionist]

No...things have not improved with medication. Isn't wearing socks to bed a normal thing? I hope so because I've been doing this for as long as I can remember.

I wear socks to bed too even in the summer if I don't have them on I cannot sleep.
