Just wanted to say Hi to everyone. Had mouth cancer in 1989. I'm a survivor I now have Raynauds. Has anyone ever heard of that. It is cold hand and cold feet.
Thanks, Cathy

Hello Cathy, no I have never heard of what you have now. Please tell me more about this. I also have had CANCER since 1989. I was curious as to what all you had to have done. In 1989 what all did they do? Was there any radiation or chemo involved? Surgery? Give us a little bit of background about you. How young are you? Married? Always Vicki Lynn

Hi, I had tongue cancer back in 1989. Had surgery in 1990. Then had radiation on the tongue. I'm 50 years old. Not married and no children. Raynauds is a pain in the neck. Have to stay in bed and
keep warm. Runs my blood pressure up too. Not much fun. I also have a cronic neck pain. Not having much fun.

I know what this is now. My daughter's best friends father developed that about 10 years ago. He has to wear gloves and a coat in the summer time. Heater on high constantly. I had n clue what it was called until this very moment. You poor thing. I say this because I have been very close to the young lady who is my daughter's beast friend and her parents. Tom cannot work anymore very day this all started. He built homes for a living so his career was over. Well no matter the disease that you have now, you have just educated me and I thank you. Please talk to us about anything we are here to help if we can...Always Vicki Lynn
