That's what they call it when you're not getting enough oxygen or you have poor circulation. Could just be cold, could be more serious. Since I have lupus, I'll be going to the doc in a couple of hours. Anyone want to make me feel less worried?

| 1. Maybe your just cold. Cold temperatures impair ciruculation. |

| 2. It's hot in my office and it's not going away |

The heat is stuck firmly in the "on" position- it's 78 in here and rising. I'd cross my fingers but I don't want them to look even weirder!
