Hi alls
Which country are you in?
Hi I m from malta .
Hi there, im really sorry to read that you suffer from this disease, ive been diagnosed about 3 months ago, im a pack a day smoker and after a vacation trip i started feeling my hands itch, at first i thought it was some kind of allergic reaction to some bug bite or something but then the itch and pain start to spread to other fingers and the palm of my hand i tried Allegra for the allegric reaction i thoiught i had but the next morning my other hand started to itch, i went to the hospital and got very lucky cause i found this vascular surgeon (the only one in my country) who in a matter of 20 miin came with the diagnosis, she is amazing, she gave me Dexketoprofen trometamol (Enantyum) for the swolen and the pain and she also gave me Cilostazol a vasodilator that works by relaxing the muscles in your blood vessels to help them dilate (widen) in a matter of a week i was symptoms free. The bad is that im a bit stuborn on quitting smoke but after reading all the risks that Buergers has im thinking very seriously to start quitting, im not sure how im gonna do it but i will. I discover this forum and find some info from a guy in the US who is the best treating hard cases of Buergers, i hope this help you:
