Guest guest Posted April 23, 2001 Report Share Posted April 23, 2001 I was recently told by my cardiologist that I have a very " labile " circulation nad he does not know how to help me with it . I was not sure of the exact meaning of labile so I looked it up and found this : readily or continually undergoing chemical, physical, or biological change or breakdown : UNSTABLE. He said this because I mentioned to him that my hands and feet are often cold and blue. During this time if you press with your finger on my hand and then take your finger away I will have a white spot that will last for quite some time. But I also have times when it seems that my blood vessels dilate and my hands and feet are warm and red.(This usually happens if I am in the sun or if I stand for too long). While my hands and feet are red I feel lightheaded and dizzy. So from what I can understand my blood vessels are either too contracted or dilated. Does anyone else deal with this? Is it right to assume it is a neuroendocrine problem? Thanks for any input on this matter. a _________________________________________________________________ " Do me a favor, doc, tell me something good.
