How many Raynaud's attacks per day is safe?
Hello all. I am on Nifedipine for Raynaud's (secondary to rheumatoid arthritis). I was getting about 15 attacks per day before going on medication. I still get 2 or 3 attacks per day. Is this safe or should I seek further treatment? Please advise me.

Flaky nails and rough hands
Hi - I have been diagnosed with Raynaud's and am seeing a Rheumatologist tomorrow as the Nifedipine tablets aren't having the desired effect. My hands are really rough, with flaky skin and my fingernails are also brittle and flaky and just will not grow; they split all the time. Is this connected to

Nifedipine - Just been prescribed it and a little anxious.
If anyone has been on this medication, can you let me know what to expect with it. My doctor talked me through all the possible side effects etc, but wanted to hear from some real life experiences with this particular med. Started on 5mg once a day for a week, then twice a day for a week and then up

Ive had Reynauds since I was a child (Im 27 yrs now) The last few years havn't been too bad and for at least the last 2 Ive not needed medication. This winter it's returned and my hands feet ears and nose are nearly always cold. Ive gone back on medication but with taking 20mg each evening I'm still

Does anyone have diffuse scleroderma?
I've been diagnosed for a year now and have yet to find anyone who has the same version of the disease. It's been quite a year, but I'm keeping smiling. I'm on mycophenolate, nifedipine, ramipril and aspirin....so far....and iloprost (infusing as I speak!). Would be good to say hello to anyone in a similar
