And I bet your confused about it?

Hi, I'm diagnosed with Small Vessel Disease/Ischemia and within this I get Raynaud's phenomenon, vascular spasms and Coronary Microvascular Disease (none blockage angina or variant angina). It's all about my vascular system suddenly closing up somewhere, sometime and making that area lack oxygen. This also leads to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (some call ME). I get white crusty skin and a fine pimply rash where the skin Ischemia as been but it as never been diagnosed as scleroderma just given Daktacort cream (for when it's raw) and emulsifying ointment for other times. Have they mentioned CREST? Have you been called neurotic yet, if not you will be or been told it's panic attacks?

Good luck kel
