I've had an ongoing problem since my MDS . My toes would turn PURPLE and if I stubbed my toe, it would be excrusiating pain, big time.
Finally went to a Podiatrist, who also sent me to a Neurologist and found out this condition is known as Erythromelalgia. Turns out Erythro is a sceondary disease to Myeloprolific Disiease.
Anybody else had this? Believe it or not a simple cure for it is Aspirin.
Thanks
Dick

Thanks for the heads up, Dick. Haven't had that problem - yet.
