I have this too, and it's a pain in the ......(name the area).  I just learned about this a few months ago, and I am sooooo glad I did. Like DuenasMom stated I' to have gone for groceries and had to almost wait till my hands thawed out to pay. (The frozen food isles are the devil! LOL) I dread the summer and folks/stores blasting the AC too. I'm usually the suspicious looking person that's overdressed for the warmer seasons.

Thanks to the discovery and diagnosis I feel normal.

@luxnhuntin

yes. I have had this as long I can remember.

[blobvision]

Hooray I have this.

I have it too :( I've had it since 15 I'm now 23... I have been trying to work out what causes it back then (obviously not mercury as too many young ppl have raynaulds and mercury fillings stopped years ago).... I recall doing a lot of sport in very very cold weather when I was 14-16 and generally only in shorts and t-shirt, I then noticed my hands started to go funny colours.... Now my hands are just always cold or sweaty and generally red... DOES ANY ONE HAVE A SIMILAR STORY?

I have had Raynauds disease for 12 years. I have it in my hands and my feet. They are always a dark color blue and in extreme temperatures I too form pink/ orange blotches. In the winter my hands become so swollen with blisters to the point where I cannot move or do anything. It is so uncomfortable and embarrassing as well!

i have it happens everyday am 15 :/x

[sophminx]

exactly the same! but my hands go like bluw, but i get the orange blotches too!

I live in so. cal too and I have the same problem :(

[duenasmom]

I have severe Raynaud's Syndrome + it really sucks! I live in So.Cali. + you'd think the mild/warm climate wouldn't affect me,but it does! I can even be at the beach in the summer + even a passing breeze will cause my fingers 2 turn white + go numb and hurt. Especially WORST are cold mornings and being in cold grocery stores... By the time I go 2 pay 4 stuff I can't even get my debit card outta my wallet cuz of painful, numb, white fingers! They go from white to purple to red when thawing!!

My hands go purple with orange blotches. In winter it gets painful yet no one seems to understand..
