I have had the opposite with my nails now growing beyond lateral borders, (started with concurrent ingrown bilateral borders on fingernails, then "dip" inward growth of nail base, skin growing over top of nails, along with horrific all over body brusing(we are talking like 15 to 20 on each arm between 1/2 inch to 3 inch diameter sizing on upper extremities to softball size hematomas on the lower without injury and is worsening.
My veins and arteries hurt whether I stand or sit, both veins and arteries blowing on entire body. No history of PAD, modeling severe bilateral lower extremities inguinal to toe, up to pitting 2 edema intermittent, hypersensitivity to heat/cold in feet and hands, intermittent myofascial pain random pattern and locations, intermittent neuropathy again multiple locations, cognitive impact, Raynaud's presented 2 months ago, lost 30lbs from mid Sept to beginning of January, smell issue is a vinegar, metalic combo, heart palps, (echo unremarkable), I currently am producing 2-5 PVC per heat beat(no HX of any heart rythem issues with thorough and extensive past work up for prevention in the past, failed stress test. Dispena for no reason, however O2 saturation normal, debilitating acute onset short intervolt fatigue and exhaustion usually immediate following of heart palpitation s and only last about an hour or so. I am a 50 yr old very healthy very active woman who has worked in medicine 30 yrs and have never seen what I have experienced to date since COVID. I have never witnessed nor come accross a case with so much systemic involvement, yet noncorrolating symptomology. My providers are totally stumped. Running every blood test under the sun. Have had an echocardiogram, stress ekg, scheduled for MRI stress test. I have integrated extensive mindfulness practices, with relaxation techniques, mental body scans to try to positively reduce severe symptoms and self talk as well to greatly decrease intensity of symptoms and the pain or incredible discomfort experienced at the time. I am allergic to steroids and most pain medications, so this practice has been used many, many times with very positive results thru my life to get thru injuries, post surgical recovery, and so forth. With the post COVID issues it is has been very challenging and to my total surprise not very impacting. After now 9 months, my sprit is taking a beating and my usually very positive outlook and approach is losing the battle.
