What means being diagnosed with primary raynaud's? Recently I was suspected of having raynaud's disease and yesterday I had ESR blood test that has showed my red blood cells to have the rate faster than normal and according to my symptoms I have suddenly developed recently-my feet and hands fingers are numbed and painful and they get blue alike colored when it gets cold. Anyway since I am diagnosed with primary raynad's I would like to hear what does that actually means and would this calcium channel blockers treatment help me dealing with this primary raynaud's condition. Thanks much!
Being diagnosed with primary raynaud's disease means there is no any other condition that could have caused you this disease so actually it happened that for some reason your organism has developed an auto immune system disorder affecting your skin at first place for it is actually about improper functioning of your red blood cells at first place so basically your blood vessels are not effective in providing your skin with the blood and that is why you have developed this primary raynaud's disease usually manifested in numbed fongers but it could also affect your nose and ears –which is my case. Anyway I am also being treated with the same drug calcium channel blockers that are believed to be effective in treating this condition and is especially good in healing or reducing skin ulcers that are very common in patients with primary raynad's.
