Cryoglobulinemia not caused by hepatitis or lymphoma?

I am 89 yes old and my primary care physician diagnosed my cryoglobulinemia about a year ago. I am cold and wear 2 layers of clothes and warm gloves most of the time. I have neuropathy in hands, mostly the fingers and it feels icy cold and numb.

@karenlott I’m so sorry that at 88 you got this problem condition. Are you on any medications for it? I’m glad you wear extra clothes. Do you keep the thermostat at a higher temperature? Your fingers and toes are the most at risk so do everything you can to keep them warm. Gloves or mittens are great for your hands and thick, thermal socks for your feet.
Do you have any family or friends who can help you manage this problem?
