Re: Tingling in toes/fingertips

[Guest guest]

You could have Reynaud's, but this generally occurs during cold weather.

It's odd that this would effect you when taking showers. I don't know if it

could be attributed to RA and it might be worth seeing a neurologist to rule

out neuropathy.

I have the numbness in my fingers even when I am in a supermarket in the

dairy or frozen sections. It can be quite painful.

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone here with RA experiences a

tingling sensation in your toes and/or fingertips when taking showers? I

used to have that sometimes and my Dr told me it is the RA? Just wondering

if that is definately true. Thanks, Traci

I have full Reynauld's and it bothers me year round. Air conditioning

turns my fingertips blue/purple and numb. Any heat can make my

fingers red and painful. Reynauld's is common with fibromyalgia and

probably RA.
