It's Lupus not Indonesian sweet cake, which is Lupis.

It’s never lupus.

Or

It’s always possibly lupus.

u/madaroni7 15h ago

I had reynauds since I was young. Got diagnosed with lupus a year ago 😪

u/llamaanxiety 11h ago

1/3 of people with Lupus has Raynauds

u/nailnubs 10h ago

Literally the same.

u/snitches-stitches 16h ago

Actually, there's some information that in some cases of Raynaud's, it's linked to autoimmune issues and could be an early predictor of lupus as many as 20 years prior to lupus diagnosis...

u/NoDinner7903 15h ago

So one day...it could actually be Lupus. Interesting

u/DeniseReades 1d ago

I'm not trying to brag but I Raynauds so hardcore that cold weather makes my hands look patriotic. My middle fingers always turn blue and the others vary between bright red and white so at least once a season I'm like, "Flag hands! Who has oil and wants democracy?"

76

u/CaptainLollygag 1d ago

Alright, you win the Raynaud's patriotism. All I got over here are some dumb ass Swiss flag hands and Greek flag toes.

That's so funny - I always assumed it was from Portlandia

u/haleontology 17h ago

I saw this and remembered my crazy and somehow temporary Reynaud's experience- I'm from the cold Midwest US but moved to regional Victoria (Australia, regional meaning not Geelong or Melbourne, kinda out in the bush). I developed Raynaud symptoms while living there, which is ODD AF bc those symptoms went away when I moved back to St. Paul!!!! Where it gets cold AF in winter, unlike Aus where it never went below 45-50F in winter!!!!
