It is so frustrating but yes for me too in the early years after my injury i had terrible circulation both in my hands and feet. Today (32 years on, my circulation is still bad but I just need to remember my gloves, thick socks and hat... try covering your head too as we lose most of our body heat out of our head and if you can not walk far enough to build up exertion, you justneed to be warm all the time!!!
