Cold does not bother me much either. When I have problems it is BURNING!

I find socks counterproductive when my feet are cold-- socks do not warm me...they make the cold continue. I soak my feet in tepid water with epsom salts, and this improves the circulation and the cold discomfort goes away.

I think really cold feet can be either a sign of RSD problems, or a blood circulation issue.

Really cold hands and feet can be due to Raynaud's syndrome. And there are many causes of that....a huge long list. One is hypothyroidism.
