pamyla Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 Usually my hands are ice cold and sweaty but occasionally they will become hot. Strange... There doesn't seem to be any in between for me either. Are you hands normally cold as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
u2star Posted December 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 Yes, they are cold as well but they may be due to the fact I am on a beta blocker. Unsure??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosteelers68 Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 My hands (and feet) are usually ice cold, but, when things are about to flare up, I often get very over heated (including my hands). FYI-I am not on any beta blockers currently so that isn't a factor with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristinp29 Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 I'm coming in a little late on this topic, but....My hands are either freezing cold or hot and sweaty. There's hardly ever a happy medium. Of course, I'd prefer the freezing cold, because sweaty hands are a hassle...and embarrassing when it comes to a handshake. I've found that sometimes, when my hands are lower than the rest of my arms for a while, the blood tends to pool in them. That makes them warmer, so I try to keep them at the same level as the rest of my arms whenever possible. I've just recently figured this out,so I haven't had much time to experiment to see if this stops the sweatiness. Hmm...that would be nice!

geneva Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 I just wanted to add that I don't get hot hands, but I do get hot feet (from the inside out -- to touch them they are normal temp). Both hands and feet can also be freezing AND sometimes I am unable to accurately determine the temperature. For example, my husband will say that my feet are ice cold and they feel perfectly normal to me and vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
