Sometimes EM is secondary to other medical conditions including autoimmune, neurologic or blood disorders. Lupus, polycythemia vera and multiple sclerosis are examples." "Symptoms .... symptoms may include hands or feet that are very red to purple in color, are perhaps swollen, hot to the touch, and have burning pain. Location .... symptoms may appear in the face, ears, knees or other parts of the body.... Some notice a continual burning pain while others are troubled with "flare-ups" or episodes lasting from minutes to days in length. Triggers .... flare-ups are provoked by heat and exercise, and symptoms are relieved by cooling and elevating the affected extremities. Some TEA members have found that foods, spices like MSG, beverages (particularly alcohol) and some drugs can make symptoms worse." Who loves ya.

"Erythrocytosis and Scleroderma" "Secondary erythrocytosis with erythromelalgia." "A diagnosis of secondary erythrocytosis with erythromelalgia was made. In addition to supple-mental oxygen, aspirin and intravenous hydration,phlebotomy was performed daily. The patients symptoms of hyperviscosity soon improved, as his hemoglobin and hematocrit gradually lowered to18.3 g/dL and 56.1%, respectively, after 8 sessions of phlebotomy." Erythrocytosis in a Scleroderma Patient ERICMABO, M.D.1, TIMIEDEKI, M.D.1, GLORIAE. WESTNEY, M.D.2, JAMESW. REED, M.D.3, ANDXIAOQINGGUO, M.D.1 Abstract A 40-year-old black male with scleroderma lung disease presented with blurry vision and headache. His presenting hemoglobin was 22.3 g/dL and his serum erythropoietin level was surprisingly low. Although nocturnal hypoxemia was evident, his daytime resting arterial oxygen saturation was normal. The patients symptoms of hyperviscosity improved after phlebotomy, as his hemo-globin gradually decreased to 18.3 g/dL. Repeat serum erythropoietin levels were in normal and high ranges. Patients with chronic interstitial lung disease and erythrocytosis could have normoxemia at rest and a normal or low serum erythropoietin level at the peak of erythrocytosis. A repeat sampling of serum erythropoietin and monitoring of oxygen saturation during sleep and exertionmay help in diagnosis. Physicians should prescribe continuous oxygen therapy for patients with chronic interstitial lung diseaseand erythrocytosis, even if diurnal resting hypoxemia is absent.
