My left hand has felt cold about 60 - 70% of the time over the past several days, and it snaps when I gently rock it back and forth. I play guitar and I know it's related to playing a lot of barred chords (using the index finger to "barre" across all the strings while using the other three fingers to make the chord shape).

On some preliminary searches on the symptoms, I'm seeing a lot of "consult your doctor" - well, I don't have a doctor until January. So what is the doctor going to have me do, so I can bypass the middleman and start reversing the problem now?

Thanks ...
