hi guys, hope you're all doing fab! just want to pick your experienced brains please.....
ok so ive done cd for 6 months then 6 mnths off n now on week 8 of my restart n due to be completely off it by xmas week.
i am getting concerned about my blood circulation..... i really donnot want a health prob to take me off cd early but don't want to be a fool for ignoring things.
i know its obviously freeezing out there and i know a common symptom of ketosis is coldness but...... my hands feet and nose are constantly freezing, despite two pairs of socks and snow boots (serioulsly wearing them to the office lol) indoors full on hand knitted socks like baby booties/ slippers heating on full blankets etc. i put this down to ketosis and cold wheather... agreed?
now of late just doing normal things around the kitchen, my lower legs are cramping not majorly, i held my feet in front of the radiator today and didnt realise they were on it antill i burnt myself. i can be in bed for three hrs n my feet still sting from cold is it normal, i also have slow achy joints... put it down to coldness right?
sorry if im waffling here....
i googled 'poor circulation' silly me... now im wondering shall i go docs? if they are more than 100% sure its not just ketosis i know they will air on side of caution and tell me to stop vlcd.
what do u all think?? how does a doc even check ones circulation n distinguish any probs? i recently had my bp chacked n it was fine donno if that is relevant
thanks in advance xx
