Guest guest Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Do you think this latest hand stuff is from the Reynaud's? It sounds like the blue hand would be. But then you have all this other stuff going on! I hope you can get into the doc soon!!hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 The blue, yeah prolly - but the thing on the outside of my hand feels like " nerve " something - it started out some weeks ago with loss of sensation in BOTH hands, but thank goodness the right hand has pretty much returned to normal. There are times when I could take a Sharpie and trace a " numb " or a " burning " path from the tips of my pinkie and ring fingers straight up the back of my arm to my neck, and that ain't Reynaud's...

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 The burning in the pinky and ring fingers can be ulnar nerve compression. Here's a good link for finger parenthesia. http://www.bettermedicine.com/article/finger-paresthesiaWhat do you think?

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Thanks, interesting! I'm thinking something in my neck, though, because it was bilateral when it started. Plus there's the pretty pretty colors... Also since it started, I have completely lost the " asleep " sensation in both hands - goes from numb to burn to weird " joybuzzer " without the pins-n-needles bit in the middle. Gotta try calling the clinic again Monday, sigh, we couldn't get anything but the answering machine all day today.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Possibly a pinched nerve in your neck? I have the ulnar thing going on since I rest my arm and elbow most of the day on the arm rests on my chair. So I have tingling and some numbness in my 3rd over to my pinky finger. I hope you can get in soon to see the Dr., I hate it when they don’t call back, and you have to wait the weekend. Hugs, Jackie Very Weird New Thing! Anybody have?
