I just got diagnosed with Reynaud's and have a conflict with my job. The Doctor told me to wear compression gloves all the time which I absolutely can't. So Im really stressed about work at the moment. I have to go in for another appt in 1 month time to find out how bad my nerves are damaged since i have constant numbness tingling and pain. My hands have been swollen for over a wk straight at this point.

@omarahtopaz. Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I’m so sorry that Raynaud’s is potentially going to interfere with your job. Can you talk with Human Resources to see what accommodations could be made for you while you are in this diagnosis/treatment phase?
I’ve given you a link for another support group on Mayo. The dates may be old, but the discussions continue on for awhile. You might even ask your question in that support group to see what happens. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/raynauds-syndrome/.
What is the reason that you can’t wear the gloves all the time?
