I read most of the posts and I think you have enough to make a list of questions for the doctor tomorrow.  I have Lupus and I have Raynauds.  My hands and feet turn blueish white and then the veins stick out very purple on top of that.  It is also a bit painful and they are stiff.  It mostly happens when I go from a warm temperature to a cooler one.  You can pull up pics on google and see if that's what your sons hand and feet look like.  Personally, it sounds like a bit more going on than Raynauds.  I would make a list from all of the posts here and do a little research online GOOGLE IS GREAT and then take your questions wiht you to the doctor tomorrow.  Sometimes you have to push doctor a bit for an answer.  The best advice I can give if you have never dealt with a doctor on an unusual medical problem is to not let them tell you it's nothing, push for an answer or find another doctor.  Oh and one more thing.  You might ask that they check his ANA in a blood test to make sure it isn't something autoimmune.  God Bless.

Katie - I think you should talk to your parents about your condition and have them take you to a doctor.  Don't be scared, we all get sick at times.  You will be fine.
