Hi Dana,

Good post! I don't think I have cyanosis, or hardly - if that is possible. The back of my hand has gone a bit greyer than the other, so perhaps that's it; but I have very dry, very thin skin which is often extremely glossy. I've had RSD for 3 years, left hand and wrist, which was hottish and red until a year ago, then it started looking like it belongs to a dead person. Never goes blue, purple or black, like some people have to endure.

But the palm of my hand is quite red and mottled at the base, and there are permanent red spots there - not a rash, it just looks like one, though not raised or separate in any way from the surface. Looks like the red spottiness is below the surface, sometimes it's very noticeable indeed. So...I dunno! I'm a mixture!

I bet you'll find most people do have it if they've had RSD for any length of time.
Thanks for posting this,
all the best
