Cardiologist Testing

For a few years I have had one hand that will get icy cold - just one hand and it is totally random on when it does it.  My doctor sent me to a cardiologist to have some tests run and those tests were done yesterday.  They did an Ultrasound of all of my neck and arm arteries. When he got done,

his exact words were, "You could be the poster child for healthy vascular arteries. Usually by the time people see me, they're in trouble. This is a real treat. You have the healthiest veins and arteries I've seen in a long time."

Zero clots. Absolutely nothing wrong with the flow or pressure or physiology of my arteries. Just as an added bonus -- he said my carotid arteries were big, fat and beautiful with absolutely NO plaque in them. I didn't see that one coming!

His guess-- Raynaud's.
