I'm not sure what you mean by 'outcome' Josephine123. If you mean the long term prospects then I think it depends on how severe your Raynauds is and whether you should be one of the few who develop an associated connective tissue disease. I have had Raynauds since I was 13 but it is well managed with medication even though it is worse than it was (though not dramatically so), though I have since developed limited scleroderma. Hope yours is not too severe and stays stable. Best wishes, BarbJ

Thank you so much x

I've had Raynaud's for about 8 years now and have learned to cope with it. My Raynaud's seems to have stabilised with the help of medication and has not got any worse. When I was first diagnosed I was, honestly, quite scared of it but am now able to manage reasonably well.
