If you have reynauds, cold is definitely not recommended. I am on vasodilator /blood thinner called Aggrenox. I have hot, needle feeling painful hands. So inflamed. Stress makes it worse. I was told it is Vaso spasms. Avoid cold to limbs, etc. For my stomache I am on Omeprazole twice a day. I also have a muscle relaxer as I also have fibromyalgia. This Is a nasty disease that you hope will stop giving. I have not been that lucky.

I'm new here. I also have Fibromyalgia. Plus these conditions😓 You just described what I get. Like needles stabbing me. Mine are all over and cause me to jump! I'm also on oxygen. I don't have support so here I am... Miserable and my feet swell sometime too. My dox already had me on a water pill then I got meds that can make your feet swell.
