Do I need to inform my other specialists about my Raynauds Phenomenon Syndrome diagnosis?

Since being diagnosed with Raynauds Phenomenon Syndrome… Am I suppose to let my other specialist know? My rheumatologist is the one who confirmed but do I notify my neurologist?!

Do you have a primary doctor? My primary doctor prescribes my medication for my thyroid ... my rheumatologist prescribes my medication that I take for raynauds .. The primary care doctor is the one that needs to know all medicines from all specialist that you see.. for me I have two doctors and they’re both aware of my medications .. it gets more complicated the more specialists you have .. hope the best for you!

It’s always helpful to let your other physicians know about new diagnoses. They will put it in your chart and can reference it for future medications. I’m on a channel blocker for my Raynaud’s so I always inform my drs. Drs that work closely with your diagnoses appreciate being informed. I will typically bring my immunologist lab work that my rheumatologist did so he’s informed.
