Hi @shorty321,
I wouldn’t look at Raynaud’s as the diagnosis itself, but rather as a possible symptom or clue pointing toward an underlying condition.
It may be worth investigating:
autonomic disorders
small-fiber neuropathy
rheumatologic or hematologic (vascular) conditions, especially if an autoimmune disease is suspected
Some tests that could help provide answers include:
MRI of the brain/internal auditory canals
ANA and other autoimmune panels
B12, folate, thyroid function, glucose/HbA1c
ESR/CRP inflammatory markers
