Dealing With Raynauids Disease
Posted: 03-19-06 19:56pm

Hi,
i was just diagnoised with raynauids disease. I had never heard of this before. I suffered in pain for eight weeks before a Dr. Would tell me what was happening. First symptom was my fingers itched.Then they were painful. They would swell. There was no color in the tips of my fingers. The cold made the pain worse. When putting my hands in warm water my fingers would turn purple. I couldn't use my hand without being in pain. Peeling potatos, using a can opener, taking care of my two year old was painful. After eight weeks of this the pain went away and now my fingers crack and that alone is painful they peel and still have no color. At one point there was no pulse in my fingers. If anyone suffers from this or has any of these symptoms please contact me I would like to hear from you. I still have pain but not near as bad as when having an eposiode. I try to keep my hands warm.
