Wish me luck; starting new medication today...

...for what the doc believes is Raynaud's syndrome. (apparently safe givem my known atrial fibrillation (heart murmur) too...) Trouble is, while my fingers and feet get pale, they've never turned ghost white or blue from oxygen starvation... meh. Nobody's perfect.

Diltiazem.

Funny how this drug, which is primarily used for hypertension (high blood pressure)... Mine is usually ~110/65, with a somewhat high pulse of 80...

Still, if I no longer end up with freezing fingers and feet, I'll be that much happier. But my toadysense is suggesting this drug may not be a right fit...

9. Quite. 'Time and the Rani' - a fun, if not brainless story...

I've put up the next 10 candidates. May as well get ahead of myself... and maybe half of them won't be used, I know a couple better pics to find... :D Thanks for your interest in my sigline-go-round. :D

3. I'm assuming you did all possible research on this one....good luck with

it.

[Deja Q]

6. I've done enough research. And, no, I'm not certain.

Then again, what is?

Besides, my doc prefers to shrug everything off as anxiety after doing no tests. For him to actually scribble out a prescription is rare, so he's either right - or keen to bump me off, but I could care less either way. :7 I just want the coldness and numbing to stop.
