Bag of frozen peas for a cold pack and heat up dry rice in a sock for a hot one. Ah...nm

My hands get cold, and typing with cold muscles is like (sm)
running or other exercise when not warmed up. I wear thin, warm gloves with the fingertips cut out to keep my hands & knuckles warm. For muscle pains in the shoulders, neck, biceps, etc, try Flexall cream - I find it to be VERY effective. Also try slight changes in chair height, keyboard height and angle, and monitor height. I found if I enlarge the print on my screen, it keeps me from hunching forward to try to read it. (CTL + scroll up or down on mouse wheel to make print bigger or smaller. It will not affect the size of the finished product.) Frequent "mini-breaks" to do other chores: filing etc. if in an office, quick household task if working at home, also helps relieve repetitive stress. A few months ago I thought my typing days were numbered due to various pains & arthritis; now I can work pain-free for up to 11 hours in a day. Good luck! :)
Black olives and celery with coarse sea salt

Forget all that mushroom soup stuff. Add carrots, celery, dry onion soup mix, a touch of tomato past
Add flour to mixture when roast is finished for gravy. Home made mashed potatoes and green beans with almonds and a salad. Yum.
Three Musketeers (frozen)

Great for the teeth.


frozen fingers
do you guys have troubles with her hands getting cold? and what do you do about it?
frozen bans
I buy them in good shape and freeze them anyhow and when I feel like having one, I eat them frozen. They are sweater and just like eating banana ice cream. The heck with baking. I freeze grapes too, very refreshing in the summer.
Frozen bananas
For the smoothies, I peel mine first and put them in the tupperware containers and then when I'm making my smoothie,just drop them in. I don't think they would work with the peel on. How could you get it off once it is frozen?

You think that's bad? I had cold

I have listened to one sniff and blow her nose into the phone today.  
Anybody live where it's cold?

cold feet
I bought a cheap electric heater and run it pointing towards my feet.
Cold fingers
Even though I keep my house comfortable, I find my fingers getting cold when I type.  Is it just me. Does anyone have any suggestions.
Cold in Colorado! ...
Burr is right!  I'm in northern/central Colorado, I think it is about 5 degree now with light snow ... but the wind is dying down.  Horrible hurricane type winds the last few days.  Thanks for mentioning us Coloradans!!  :)
Cold in the midwest too
I heard on the TV that Cedar Rapids (eastern IA) had temp of -17 with a wind chill of -30 this morning! BRR!
Old people who are cold?

cold fingers
All the time when I start out before the work area is sufficiently warmed up with the SPACE HEATER. Space heater essential to get fingers going.
How about a cold remedy?
I get great relief from colds with Zicam. (I also take 50 mg of oral zinc, which boosts the immune system). I use the Zicam when the cold is in my nose, with runny nose, sneezing, congestion. To open your sinuses you might want to try Rhinocort. You'll need a Rx for it, but it is good stuff. It's safer than Afrin (which works great but can't be used for more than three days, and can raise your BP). Oh, and chicken soup may help.

Hope you are feeling better soon.
Mine gets cold too

Not sure why just the right hand.  I have mild Raynauds though it is worse in my toes - I have to wear wool socks or slippers while I work. 


Do you have cold intolerance in your hands or feet any other time?


Yes, I do have cold intolerance
I've been tested for thyroid, but it comes back okay.  Hands always cold, but when typing the right one becomes much colder than the left, feels somewhat numbish, and painful in the wrist.  I'm going to try making a wrist warmer with rice in it to heat in the microwave to see if that helps.
Cold in California

Chance of snow tonight near Fresno.  I know this is not your kind of cold, but for us it's unusual.



aw man, it's too cold, but I'm wishing!

Cold hands
Does anyone else have freezing hands as they type?  It's worse of course in the colder weather.  Are there any gloves or similar products out there that we can wear while we type?  Any ideas are appreciated!  I freeze all the time, in warm weather or cold, but my  hands are what I need to be warm to keep transcribing.  I need a space heater that doesn't cause my electric bill to go sky high, but haven't found one of those either.
My hands are always cold too.
I have seen gloves with the fingertips cut out, but do not know how comfy they would be to type with.

I sit with a heating pad on my back cause I have arthritis in my hip and when my hands get cold I just put them behind my back to warm them up.

There are also those heat packs you can squeeze or rub together to warm up your hands.

You would think after typing and typing our hands would stay warm with all this exercise, but NO.

Keep Warm.
Cold Fingers
Try typing gloves! I have the same problem. They do help some. I also have been known to sit on a heating pad while typing -- helps warm me up.
Cold calling sm

Has anybody used cold calling to get their own accounts? If so, can you give me advice on how to go about doing this?


I'm also marketing with direct mail, etc., but would like to do some cold calling.  I heard it works.



Thanks!


I'd like them for when I have cold hands

wonder if they would work for that...


I have had cold hands lately
and I tried buying some little stretch gloves and cut the fingers out, but I found in the Sunday paper an add for Miracle Therapy Gloves that supposedly reflect body heat. I was going to order them and try them. They do have a web site it's called www.DreamProductsCatalog.com
cold hands
My hands get so cold in my office that it's difficult to type.  They're stiff from being cold.  Any suggestions for a type of warming glove that wouldn't be cumbersome while typing?
what I did for my cold hands

I bought a duel-headed lamp with adjustable necks (kind of like the 50's space-age atomic style).  I have it on my desk in front of the keyboard with a lamp head bent over and trained on each hand as I type.  The warmth is wonderful, and it doesn't get in my way at all.  And you can move them up a little if your hands get too warm.  No cumbersome gloves that will slow your speed and accuracy down.


my right hand goes cold

Hi - I just developed identical sympotms as you in the last week.  Especially while typing, my right hand goes cold and I have pain in the joint of my thumb and wrist.  I also have very mild swelling in the hand (no one else notices but me).  I can tell the fingers are all slightly more swollen on the right hand.  My suspicion is this is a "repetitive movement" agitation of the joints kind of like tennis elbow or something.  My plan of action - which will be very hard to accomplish - is take advil to reduce pain and swelling, and reduce movement of the hand by using my left hand instead.  If the problem continues, I may try a home made splint or something from Walgreens.  If after that, I'll go to the doctor to get a referal to someone who knows how to fix it. Please respond to this if you ever found out what your problem is.  I'm at the beginning stages and people have said, "maybe you have arthritis".  Well, I'm only 36, there's no way I'm gonna have arthritis this young, right?  Anyway, I'd like to know what others have found.


Thanks

s/l cold a glutens and haptoglobin

I have Raynaud's, so I know all about cold hands.
Raynaud's is a fairly common circulatory problem of the capillaries of the fingers and toes. When your hands are cold, look for distal portions of digits that are white compared to the rest of the hand. Treatment for Raynaud's is keeping hands warm. Wear mittens when it is 50 degrees or below. Don't use bare hands in frozen foods.

Transcriptionists who want to protect their precious median nerves AND keep their hands warm use these gloves:

You may actually type faster with them - I do.

Another option is to keep a heating pad on your lap as you work. That's what my dad's secretary used to do in Wisconsin.
Northern Arizona is cold, too

One hand goes cold as ice when typing...??

My right hand goes ice cold when I type all day long.  I asked the ortho doctor about this a while back and got a dumb look in response.  Anyone have this or have any clues as to what is wrong?  That wrist has a ganglion in it.  The other hand remains normal temperature.


Thanks!


Yes - cold does kill fleas
it's called WINTER not air conditioning........ROFLMAO!  Are you for real?
