I have noticed lately that Joe's lips are blue sometimes and other times they are pink/red.....what has been your experience with this....it kind of concerns me.

dkleinert......Call the doctor now! Call the office, tell them and get to the doctor. Something is wrong this is not normal. We are not doctors here, we're laymen/Laywomen, if it isn't life threatening so what? It is better too err on the side of caution than let serious events go unchecked. Take care, best of luck and hang in there.

Defintely call and/or go! I've always assumed blue lips were a lack of oxygen though it could be other things as well, including a reaction to cold in my son's case. You definitely need to call his doctor.

My dad does not have blue lips but his hands sure turn blue some times and feel cold to the touch. He said that circulation is affected by his medications. Does anyone know if that is true? Dad is always trying to avoid a trip to the doctor. Thank you, Mary

I think it's true that the hands get cold and maybe blue-ish from poor circulation. Blue lips I would worry about!
