Cold feet- blue toes?!


Question: I am putting this in the heart disease section bc I am asking if these symptoms could be a sign of heart disease/heart problem...? I have a left bundle branch block and I'm getting a cardiac CT Monday bc of an abnomal stress tes, and it dawned on me this weekend that this may be connected. (I'm 36, female)

Your Cardiologist should have checked your ankles/feet during your exam. If they didn't (doubt it). They were remiss. Circulatory problems don't just effect the heart. They're systemic. You're describing poor circulation to the lower extremities. The question is why. You need to be evaluated (doppler study). LBBB is a conduction abnormality. Your heart contains redundancy w/the right branch bundle. You didn't say why the stress test was abnormal. Call your Doctor's office, & tell them about your feet. Good Luck.

It sounds like poor circulation so it may be related to a heart condition. Let your doctor know of the condition.

You may have a circulation disorder. Please do mention your toes as there are medications which increase vasodilation and will improve your situation

LBBB goes hand in hand with IHD(ischaemic heart disease), which is a reflection of atherosclerosis. So your cold feet and blue toes can be due to peripheral vascular disease secondary to atherosclerosis.

Another thing you should ask about is Reynaud's Disease or Reynaud's Syndrome.

it sounds like you have poor circulation

discuss your symptoms and all other questions with your doctor.

i have no clue what the big words mean but i think you dont have good circulation

sounds like a vascular problem and can be heart related. you need to have this checked immediately.

if your heart was failing you will notice swelling in your hands and feet.
