The last few days my knuckles have been a sort of yellow colour when I've woke up. It is more visible on my left hand and it seems to go back to normal over the course of the day.

I'd assume it's something to do with blood circulation. Does anyone have any idea what's causing it?

:faf:

on a serious note, it definately sounds like something to do with your circulation.

do you lie on your hand or in a way which will cut the circulation to your hands?

i wake up with dead arms all the time because of the way i like... its ****ing horrible.... you have to move the dead arm with the other arm.

I used to wake up and every now and again my knob would be orange. The problem went away by itself eventually - round about the time I stopped buying wotsits along with my porno :agree:

Aye, I suppose I do. I've had dead arms a few times in the past but it's just weird that it's just been the last few days that my knuckles are turning yellow. I've been eating more mince in the last week, don't know if that is related?

It could simply be increased carotene intake from eating carrots, sweet potato, or other orange foods.

Plenty of carrots in yer mince?

If you're genuinely concerned, seek professional advice and try not look up symptoms on the internet as some folk are as qualified to comment on medical matters as Gary Glitter is to childcare!
I've had recurring pins'n'needles for a while now, I don't even have to lie to long in 1 position to get them. A quick google and it turns out I might be HIV+, I mean FFS, how the frig do they come to that idea?
And before anyone jokingly or in an advisory capacity suggests otherwise, NO, I'm not hiv+!

:agree: The internet is dangerous when it comes to self diagnosis.

I was really dizzy in spells with splitting headaches and getting some weird things going on in my field of vision. A quick check on the internet confirmed i had a brain tumour. When i actually consulted a Doctor, fearing the worst, he informed me i was suffering migraines. Still horrible but not quite as serious.

Another time i had/still have a nagging pain in the left of my chest. This spread up into my shoulder, right down my left arm and into my hand. A check on the internet confirmed i had cardiomyopathy and was set to drop down dead at any time. On consulting a proper Doctor i was told i had thoracic outlet syndrome caused by a boxing injury. Again not pleasant but not life threatening.

If you have something thats bothering you the only advice is go to the docs and be honest about the problem even if you think it's embarassing or your being stupid.
