Raynauds syndrome

My 17 yr old daughter has Raynauds, but isn't a diabetic.
Her GP said it is very common in young people. She gets aching in one arm and then her hand can turn completely purple within seconds. One of her main symptoms was lack of iron, but if that's kept in check she's fine.

Hi I had Raynauds as a child. grew out of it, get it everynow and again, now I'm a lot alot older. Imho they arent connected.
 
Question...are the symptoms of Reynauds similar to neuropathay in your hands? Is teh different teh feeling cold part of Reynauds, whereas neuropathy is more of a tingling??

Please note, this is a question, not an answer, so don't panic!
 
hiya i dont have a tingling in my hands they are just extreamly cold for about 90% of the day my gp has put me on a vaisodilator to help im not actually sure if they do though they are on a months trial
