I have experienced that my fingertips loose sensation after they were exposed to cold, ie. I took food out of the fridge or freezer. It will lasts for around 2 days. In very cold weather it will also happen. I have no sensation on my finger tips and it feels very weird. My GP once mentioned that I may have Raynaud's (about two years ago). The only real solution I have now is wearing gloves when I work in the fridge or freezer and hold my hands right in front of a heater afterwards

When you have multiple chronic illnesses it always seems like "what now!"
Yes, my fingers also turn white, then purple and purple. It is a horrible feeling not to "feel" your fingers. It seems like every few months there are something new added to my illness.
I have raynaud’s and it causes my fingers and toes to turn white, then purple and red once they start to warm up. There are medications that can help.
Do they turn a different color, my entire fingers turn yellowish, how about you?
I have it but very rarely. The rheumatologist said later up. My daughter has a pretty severe case. I don't know how she hasn't lost fingers or toes from it. If you don't or can't warm them up they can go black. It's weird because it's only temporary but sometimes hers is very painful. The said the hand warmers help a lot. My cousin is a nurse. She had to move out of the cold and out of surgical or procedure rooms because Raynaud's really effects her. So she moved down here to the desert. She has other autoimmune conditions also. If your worried talk to your rheumatologist .
