swelling, brusing, fatigue, cold hands & feet, skin problems

My sysmptoms are: swelling in feet, legs, cold hands & feet, turn bluish at times, brusing, pain, fatigue.I was diagnosed with raynaud's phenomenon about 3 months ago. I have been taking, potassium pills, lyrica, fish oil 1200mg., vit. E and multi-vitamin and lasix. All prescibed by doctor. At first the med. seem to be helping really well, swelling was gone, pain subsided, no more brusing. I am very active i was able to exercise and play with my child pain and swelling free. But now everything is going back to the way it was before I started taking the med. Swelling is present in feet, legs...now in arms, stomach & face. I AM LOST. I have been dealing with these problems for a long time before I was diagnosed, they got better and now I am back at square one. I have also started to experience very dry skin in places. So dry the spots are very sore and bleed. The spots are
bigger in size and spreading. Can someone PLEASE help me.
