Hi letapumamatt
I have Raynaud's Disease in my toes; quite painful in cold months. I am curious about your mention of the ANA test; what is that? I am an 82 yo female and my disease got active late in life. MD tried a low dose blood pressure medicine, and another MD prescribed a topical compound medicine. Neither did any good. My blood pressure is too good to go full blown on blood pressure meds. My toes and half way into my foot can turn deep red, dark gray, and at times black. What are some of the things you do to help your Raynaud's

@leeannsu42 I have a real problem with my toes and fingertips in the winter. My husband bought a pair of winter hiking socks which have been real life (toe) savers. I’m wearing my purple ones now! I’ll see if I can find the name of them or the manufacturer and leave you a note tomorrow.
