Hi
I was diagnosed with Raynaud's 7 years ago and was prescribed nifidipene. I stopped taking it once my symptoms had subsided and I stopped getting the excruciating pains in my fingers.
I returned to doctor in March because I was feeling the cold and my hands were suffering again. I have had blood tests done including anti nuclear ones and these came back marked as no further action required. I started again on the nifidipene and they are starting to help now.
Does anyone know if Hives is related to the disease? I have been itching over a year now on a regular basis and take antihistamines every other day. The area ends up red with white wheals and started to occur more frequently at night resulting in a sleepless night for me. If my partner gives me a cuddle, it brings up a rash on my neck instantly.
I spoke to a nurse when it first happened last year, all she said was had I changed wash powder etc etc.
Am sorry for the long post, its really starting to get me down now and I know being tired isnt helping that.
