Raynaud’s phenomenon, also known as Raynaud's syndrome, is a condition that causes spasms in small arteries, reducing blood flow to extremities like fingers and toes. Sometimes, it can also affect the ears, nose, ni***es, or lips.

Common symptoms include:
🔹 Fingers or toes turning white or blue
🔹 Numbness
🔹 Pain
🔹 Triphasic color change (white, blue, then red when rewarmed)

These episodes, or "attacks," are often triggered by exposure to cold, stress, or emotional upset. They usually start suddenly, lasting about 15-20 minutes, beginning in one finger and spreading symmetrically to both hands. The index, middle, and ring fingers are most commonly affected. Symptoms typically resolve on their own when rewarmed.

Raynaud's phenomenon can indicate underlying autoimmune disorders such as lupus, scleroderma, or rheumatoid arthritis. Management options include lifestyle changes, medications, stress reduction, and quitting smoking. Medications like calcium channel blockers and angiotensin-receptor blockers can be helpful.

At Prestige Clinicians LLC, we provide specialized treatments and telehealth services to cater to your needs.

Understanding Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a more aggressive form of breast cancer, named for the fact that tumor cells in TNBC don’t express the three common markers used to classify breast cancer: estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). TNBC can be detected during routine breast cancer screening when cancer cells test negative for these markers.

Key Points about TNBC:
- Aggressive Nature:
TNBC tends to grow quickly, spread at the time it's found, and can return after treatment.
- Diagnosis:
Often more advanced when diagnosed.
- Demographics:
Disproportionately affects younger women and Black women.
- Treatment Resistance:
Not affected by hormones or the HER2 gene.

Treatment Options:
- Stage I:
Chemotherapy, followed by surgery (lumpectomy or mastectomy), and possibly more chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
- Stage II or III:
Six months of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, followed by surgery and possibly radiation and more immunotherapy.
- Stage IV:
Not curable, but treatable.

The five-year survival rate for patients with TNBC is about 77%, but recent advancements may improve these outcomes.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for about 10-15% of all breast cancers. Early detection through regular screenings is crucial.

If you notice any of these symptoms, it's crucial to act fast and call 911. Early treatment can help minimize brain damage.

Remember the simple tests to check for signs of a stroke:
- Face: Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?
- Arms: Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward?
- Speech: Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is the speech slurred or strange?

Silent strokes, which don't have noticeable symptoms, can also cause subtle problems and increase the risk of future strokes and dementia.
