| Don't know, but had similar symptoms that came at the same time my thyroid was going haywire. Good luck. |

| I've been having the exact same thing happen to me. At first it was my toes doing it, but now it's just my fingers. I'm 23/F....so it's not because I'm old. I've been to doctors, had my blood sugar & pressure tested, tested for arthritis and it's all come back fine. Surprise Surprise, didn't really think I'd have problems with those at 23, but noboby knows what it is. I've cut back on salt and it still does it. The best guess I've come to lately is poor circulation while I'm sleeping, so since noboby else can figure it out I'm trying some things on my own. I went to GNC and got the herb Cayenne Pepper, it's says on the bottle to aid with digestion, but I was told it increases your blood flow. So I've been taking one of those before I goto sleep at night, and I'll still wake up with swollen fingers...but their not so swollen that they hurt. |
