Raynaud's Syndrome: Anyone want to talk about Raynaud’s?

@windwalker Oh yes, her toes go white, dead looking white.

My daughter has tried the calcium blockers but it caused more attacks so now we are trying to keep her warm.

Hi All, I got Raynaud's in 2021 post COVID-19 Pfizer Vaccine https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0264410X24011526. Here is a link to an article confirming this association.
The Scientists found genes related to Raynaud's: ADRA2A (alpha-2A adrenergic receptor responsible for vasoconstriction in response to temperature and stress) and IRX1 (responsible for blood vessel dilation). https://www.bing.com/search

From personal experience living with Raynaud's, these measures may work: staying warm, avoiding wind, taking things from the refrigerator with a napkin, warm meals, carrying with me electric Ocoopa hand warmers. You may find online gloves with electric warming inserts.

How about your toes? Mine burn and hurt really bad.

Hello 👋 I would love to join a support group for Raynauds. I feel I could contribute alot being that I have had raynauds since I was 35 and am now 66. So have had for 31 years. I have learned alot by living thru it and have it both in my hands and feet.

The raynauds is just another symptom of me having an autoimmune disease called Limited scleraderma or crest syndrome. I have learned to cope with it and keep it under contrIl with many many tools in my tool box. Luckily have not lost any fingers ot toes but have some very close . Let me know when you get the support group goimng and I will definetly be a part of it.

Yes. My hands will turn purple and my thumb can go almost black. They will also be ice cold. It can be very disconcerting. I will usually wrap my hands in a throw blanket to warm them up. I sometimes will wear gloves indoors.

@csmirat I've been suffering with it since my teens. I'm 69 now. 3 and sometimes 4 fingers on each hand, and toes on each foot. Never around anything that relieves it, but someone on another site said to put latex (surgical) gloves under your mittens or gloves! I heard this too late for this winter! It happens in the summer to me as well...
