I feel cold,numb and pain in my fingers without color change to white or blue ?Do I have Raynaud's?Is this normal? I had a sudden swelling on my forehead,I remember no tick bite or injury,it gone away in two days ,should I worry about it ?
I have mild pain in my thumbs,since 2weeks .my blood reports are RF- 175mg/DL,ESR-45,CRP -0.52,ANA:1:80 ,SPECKELD, anti CCP negative,not anemic, I have IBS and Asthma since 2years ,weight loss of 6kgs in 6months 2 years ago,and I am maintaining my weight now? Does this history suggest any autoimmune disease?

A lot of your blood test results depend on the lab ranges as these are different in each lab. If they say “hi” or “high” or “low” next to them or are in bold then this might mean they are elevated - but of itself this is only relevant to your doctor and you. It isn’t for anyone here to interpret as we aren’t medically trained.
I get very cold feet and fingers. Over the years there has sometimes bee colour changes but not always. In my case it’s Raynaud’s secondary to neuropathy rather than primary Raynaud’s.
I also am Hypothyroid and have Sjögren’s - both of which can cause cold extremities, Raynaud’s and low body temperature.
Have you had you TSH ....T3,andT4 ... Thyroid hormones .... Checked ????
OA ... Also causes pain in your hands too.... (Arthritis Dose Not care about age ..., I have had since I was a toddler .., Just a little different name ,*junival arthritis*....

But every is different .... I have had Times I can get something from the freezer and have a bad attack ..., And another time I can reach into the freezer , without having it flare up....

I mean too ask what kinda of med are you on for your Thyroid ???? If I may ask ????? I'm on Armour now ..... For years I was on ... Synthroid, levoxial .... The usual ,most doctor's write.....
From what you are saying it appears that you may have a problem with your nerves in the extremities. You should maybe ask your GP to refer you to a specialist who can check for lack of sensation, numbness etc. Age or other illnesses e.g. rheumatoid arthritis can sometimes have an effect on the nervous system. Have a checkup anyway.
