Guest guest Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 I've had cold hands for as long as I can remember. Recently i increased my HC due to earache, elevated wbc, sore throat, etc. Some side benefits to the increase in HC (I won't mention the amount lest I get some finger-wagging here, lol) is that my hands are actually WARM; it is such a gratifying feeling! It used to be cold ALL the time, and now there are plenty times when it is WARM, yippee hurray! So how is increased hc connected to this? I'm still on only 35 mcg. cytomel and without a thyroid (too bad they don't do thyroid transplants yet...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
