This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I have Raynaud's Syndrome. Occasionally, my fingers will lose all circulation. (lemmy.world)

How do you do that to just your fingers? For me it's usually the whole arm from somewhere between the shoulder and elbow.

Sounds like a different issue. There is one that arms go numb if hands held above head for a minute. That was can be helped with the right exercise. (But see a doctor for diagnosis if it bothers you.)

Thanks for your concern! It's not super bothersome. I think I just sleep weird. I toss and turn a lot and end up in less-than-ideal positions.

Sounds like pressing on a nerve/cutting off blood flow, which isn't usually serious
