Circulatory problem?: I sounds like you might have a circulatory problem in your hands or a rheumatological disorder. Do you smoke at all? There is a disorder called Bergers Disease. Your doc should know about it. You live in Stockholm. Get good gloves for the winter. Go to Italy or Greece for the winter.
