My feet are always purple/ red, especially after standing.. and i mean a short period of time, like taking a shower. My hands are often a purply red color too. Also, my hands and feet are cold most of the time. Sometimes when i stand up after sitting, or just randomly, i won't be able to see anything except these weird grey fuzzy swirls. Could it be poor circulation? Low oxygen in the blood?
I've been googling purple feet and other disorders, but each disorder leads to a different cause, which leads to a different disorder, so i'm just wondering if anyone happens to know from experience, or something.
Michele answered Tuesday June 26 2007, 8:23 am: Well purple feet and hands doesn't seem like poor cirulation, but the other symptoms certainly do. Why not google poor circulation and see if discoloring of hands and feet are one of the symptoms. You don't give enough information for me to give you more info. Your age and weight would help. But you certainly need to get to the bottom of your symptoms. You are right to be concerned. Please don't stop searching for answers.
