alt Hacker NewsI have CNS and nerve damage from covid and my hands are basically my regulators now
I get Raynauds syndrome even in the summer
Basically if my hands are warm, I am warm, if my hands are cold my entire body is cold
always wanted to try this Sony cooling device

but wrist heater/cooler might also work
I changed ADHD stimulant medication during the winter, and the weirdest part of that change was experiencing raynaud's syndrome for the first time. (Temporary, only when I'm on Vyvanse it seems) Temperatures I have never even considered chilly, like ~17-20 degrees, indoors with socks on, and suddenly, bam my feet and sometimes my hands are white and numb.
I really feel for you dealing with that on a regular NON-temporary basis. The pain as you get feeling back is awful, the unpredictability around it is awful, having to balance that with other CNS issues must be doubly awful. It really does seem like we're starting to understand the nervous system a bit more though, so there will be some breakthroughs in the near future!
