Hi, I've had Raynaud's as long as I can remember, but it has gotten much worse in last couple of years - same time as I have developed a lot of other problems probably related to some autoimmune disease no one can diagnose (peripheral polyneuropathy etc). the Raynaud's has gotten so bad I get chilblains on my toes - one of them burst and got infected last year. Not fun for a girl who likes to wear high heels and lives in Canada where we get very cold winters.... anyway my dr gave me adalat which helps somewhat.

I know there are two types, primary and secondary. I have primary but lately I seem to be having episodes more and more often. I know that stress can bring it on and so can the cold weather (it's been a little chilly here in Idaho ...  )
I found this website along with a couple of others, but was hoping that maybe some of you had some experience with this...I know I don't have connective tissue disorder (scleroderma) and no thyroid problems, so I am just hoping that maybe the increased cold hands and feet is due to the unusual amount of stress I've been under lately
