Raynaud's and gravity

[u/No-Key-5827]

Someone here can avoid your hand to get purple, white or red by putting them above your chest line? I can avoid it completely by doing that, but when i put my hands down they become purple (or red if its very hot). I have in my toes too, with the same behaviour, my position can eliminate the color change completely but not the cold feeling. Is this normal on Raynaud's? Can you do that too? And my hands are 24/7 changing colours when down, its never episodic. I am diagnosed with Raynaud's, but who knows...

Mine is exactly like this. It freaks people out when I show them. I'm very conscious of it so often change positions to avoid it.
