So I figured I would ask you all instead of going down that damn google trap! I take a betablocker for blood pressure and citalopram for anxiety and I have noticed my thumb nail turns purplish when cold even the tip of my thumb. After I warm it up it goes back to normal. It happens if its cold outside or if I wash my hands in colder water. Also my hands and feet are always chilly. Is this from the beta blocker or anxiety med? Should I see a doctor? Thanks in advance guys :)

Anyone? I am not like in a panic just a tad spooked about my finger nail and tip turning a bluish in the cold! Could it be the meds?

I have had my fingers turn white in the cold and then it comes back when I warm it up. It's been like that for my whole life, whether I was on meds or not. Wish I could be of more help!
