My palms are orange
So over the past two years the palms of my hands and bottoms of my feet have turned a strange orange-ish color. I also haven't had a period in two years, am sensitive to cold, and have horrible digestion issues. I think all these issues might somehow be related.
I brought these issues up to my Dr. and she ran some blood tests and some other tests and said everything was normal and she didn't know what the issue was. I live a very healthy lifestyle and I'm getting really frustrated with constantly feeling horrible and people telling me I look sick and not knowing why. Does anyone else have these symptoms!?

I would see another doctor, particularly, a specialist.0

Sounds like circulation issues??? Maybe?
Doesn't sound like thyroid problems.
Perhaps see a dermatologist for the skin color and go from there. The tummy issues could be unrelated. As I grew older my tummy became sensitive to a LOT of different foods that I can no longer eat. See a gastroenterologist for that - I had to. I'm also terribly sensitive to cold due to my thyroid but I just have to deal with it and wear sweaters and jackets most all the time - gloves too.
Good luck! :flowerforyou:0 -
how many carrots do you eat a day? When I was in Weight Watchers I used to binge on carrots and canned pumpkin. They have so much carotene in them and they will turn your hands/skin orange.0

Definitely need to see a different doctor.0

My first thought was "you're eating way too many carrots." My second thought was "Get a second opinion..and not from internet strangers...from a real doctor."
But...that's already been said.0 -
You really need to see another doctor.0
