Maybe you should drink tea. It would warm you up and supposedly tea has mild blood "thinning" properties. You're not supposed to drink tea if you're going to have surgery.
For air conditioning the best part of it is the dehumidifiation. It doesn't need to be arctic cold just the dryer air and a bit of cool is OK.

- sekh60 6y agoThanks for the link! I had not heard of the syndrome before. but it could be what my wife has been suffering from for the past year or two. We already are waiting to see a specialist to have a look at her, so I won't make any conclusions, but that seems very likely it.
- dghughes 6y agoI have Raynaud's disease and cold weather alone isn't a trigger for me unless I am not wearing gloves and if I am holding onto something. A shovel when shovelling snow, or pulling a heavy cart. It has to be a continuous session not just one thing for a few minutes. I've also been sitting quietly at home and suddenly half my thumb goes purple and the other half is fine. You know it's Raynaud's syndrome because it feels like someone hit your hand with a hammer. It's not just cold hands it's the pain too.
