since my surgery almost 9 months ago, I have been cold..I can deal with that by wearing 5 layers of clothes to work..but now I have noticed my left pinky gets really cold, nail part gets white, then below that it looks bruised and hurts.. Was trying to wash dishes last night and it hurt when I put it in the water..it does go away. Is this related to my surgery?

Probably not related to surgery, sounds like damage from frostbite.

Got this last year for the first time too. Checked with my doctor. Called Reynaud's syndrome, related to circulation loss from various causes.

I agree with Raunauds syndrome. It will probably begin to affect both your whole hands.
