Re: [ozmidwifery] raynaud's disease

[Tom, Tania and Sam Smallwood]

I too suffered from the dreaded Raynaud's, diagnosed at the tender age of 16 after a hideous attack where I lost the top of my finger after a holiday in the snow....   Still suffer intermittently with sore and blotchy hands and feet, but was lucky enough not to be affected in the nipples when breastfeeding.  I tried some vaso-dilators when I was younger, but they just made me fall down, so went to a naturopath and took Gingko Biloba for quite a while, seemed to work.    Not sure if that's of any help to you Sally, but I'd be happy to answer any specific questions if I can   Tania ----- Original Message ----- From: Sally Westbury To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 18, 2002 4:30 PM Subject: [ozmidwifery] raynaud's disease What wisdom out there about Raynaud’s disease?
