I have begun having a senstion that the right side of my body is cold all the time. It feels like it is only the outside of my arm and leg which are chilled and tingely. The inside (toward my body) of my arms and legs feel normal. Now I notice that these body parts are actually cold to the touch. If someone else feels my two hands or two arms or legs, they can tell a discernable difference in temperature. My neck, shoulder, and hip joints ache and my right side lymph nodes are tender. Could these symptoms be related to Lupus?
