If I don't get out of the situation fast enough, my hands up to my elbows get numb. It's like my body can't circulate blood already, and when I get cold or even slightly cool, it shuts down.

What is up with that?
Happen to anyone else?
and the cold bothers me. It's like the cold penetrates further and deeper than it should. Mrs. D's post about cryogoblins sounds like an actual circulation situation I've never heard before. Motorcycle riders have battery operated heated gloves available if you have to be exposed. Good Luck, Ken in Texas.
