Hi Janebig9,

Dont believe everyone suffers with hands but, like yourself I do. Discussed with gp but no recommendations to ease so I keep them warm, massageand keep fingers moving.

Raynaud's phenomenon, can be one of the symptoms of fibro. Poor circulation to the extremities, may cause excruciating pain.

If you'd like a symptoms list (59) let me know.

There appears to be a large number of members on the forum who apparently have secondary illnesses to accompany their Fibro, and it is definitely worth discussing anything of this nature with your GP. I want to genuinely wish you all the best of luck.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Ken
