Hi April:

Boy, I must be an idiosyncracy! I've noticed this happens after high or low carb meals the day before. There's been no obvious pattern but I am going to keep track of it from now on. I'm getting really curious now.

Re: carpel tunnel - I thought it would be painful? Is that sensation I'm describing considered numbness?

Hmmmm, water retention. That's a thought. I do generally tend to wake up a bit swollen in my face (even though I drink 3.5 liters of water each day).

Actually, I just remembered something else. I had totally forgotten that I have Raynaud's. I wonder if this could be related? Only thing is I get this sensation in the summer and Raynaud's only affects me in the winter.

What do you guys think?

Wanda
