hey there!
I'm new to the forum and want to bring up some of my chronic issues to get some insight.
I have a history of being hypothyroid (never taken any medication for it), I am always cold.
I struggle with Raynaud's syndrome in the winter when it gets cold here, hands and feet are cold always. Fingers and toes are usually a blue-ish purple and numb and sometimes white but then my toes can become red hot and BURN. Feels like intense pins and needles and is INCREDIBLY painful. I'm also thirsty all the time. Wake up feeling dehydrated most mornings
I've recently stated taking vitamin D drops and magnesium before bedtime with a large glass of milk as well as cutting back on caffeine intake because I've noticed stress and caffeine seem to aggravate this. I don't consume alcohol which in the past would also trigger horrible outburst when added to stress.
When I have my morning coffee I add lots of milk and sugar, seems to be doing ok. Coconut oil seems to help warm me up when my hands start feeling numb.
I've read that this could be a B12 or Thiamine deficiency? I eat lots of cooked mushrooms and liver couple of times per week
Any other thoughts?
thanks yall
