Internal shivering and numb feet and hands in bed last night, very unpleasant. Any idea what causes it?

Both of these seem to associated with hypothyroidism in some way as I've had both. The hands could suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome,for this I had a simple operation on both wrists to relieve pressure. Only a slight possibility with the feet, with me it was, and still is, the residual effects of gout, probably caused by weight issues by taking the levothyroxine when I really needed NDT.

Perhaps others can offer more plausible answers for you.

Thank you. I think I may need to increase NDT.
