I hope your hands soon warmed up! My fingertips go white in the cold, even with gloves on.
I started out with nothing, I still have most of it.

Not when they're white or no blood in them, but when they warm up and the blood starts to return they can get very sore indeed...Just to point out that's not my hand, just got it from google images, but it's exactly how they go :shock:

I suffer with that as well Wes, it's hereditary.

My Gran had it really bad, and they grafted veins into her wrists to get a better circulation.

Sounds about right scruff, my gran had it too. She didn't have veins grafted though :shock:

I read it affects the extremities...I've not had kids yet so I'm hoping it doesn't effect ALL the extremities :mrgreen:

It's a Common Darter Wes, they're pretty small, my avatar pic is larger than lifesize.

The knickers are in the wash.

Here's a whole one.
