Do you have any treatment for your Raynaud's. Do you see specialist, a rheumatologist. You don't seem to have any relief, poor you.

Unmanageable pain is my reality also. Home remedies , ice & heat , hot baths, pain rub & anti inflamatory foods(tart cherries) , spices(turmeric) are my practices now . I haven't any ins. Over the counter meds R 2 expensive.
