Default pruny fingers?

I've recently noticed that I get really cold easily all of a sudden and my fingers get pruny. I wonder if this could be a symptom of hypothyroid? Does anyone else experience this?

The cold intolerance yes. Never heard of pruny fingers being a symptom.

Thanks...it happens specifically when I get cold. Sitting in my cold office I noticed it today, my fingers looked like they do when I get out of a swimming pool. I think it's a circulation problem. But i have also heard it linked to thyroid. I will ask my doc when I see him next.

I just experienced this! I am at work and am really cold. I had a stomach flu this past week, so for me, it could be a whole bunch of nutrients that I haven't been getting lately.
Did you talk to your doctor about it?
