Hi Im new and just posted about being on a beta blocker and having Raynauds. I need the beta blocker though for having long q t syndrome. This is actually a question about Raynauds. I know I have it because I was diagnosed by a specialist with it but never put any thought into it and never told any other Dr's. What are the long term effects of this if it is untreated. What are every ones symptoms besides having cold feet and hands or bad circulation? Thanks, Ellen

" my hands and feet turn white when frozen, get that asleep feeling randomly (my whole arm at night lol, I flop them both over on my chest for "thawing")... sensitive to the cold... have had this since I was a child but no "long term effects" that I have noticed aside from what it has always been.
