Hi Lucy,
Welcome to the forum! I'm glad you decided to join us. Here's the defination of Rivedo Ritcularis:
"a persistent purplish network-patterned discoloration of the skin caused by dilation of capillaries and venules due to stasis or changes in underlying blood vessels including hyalinization; rarely appears as a developmental defect."
I have this on my ankles right now. It's reddish/purplish dots with some swelling. Mine gets itchy sometimes.
I take zanaflex for Fibro too. It works pretty well for me. Sometimes I have to increase the dose when I'm flaring bad. I can take 2 four times a day per my rheumy. I usually just take one at night when I'm not flaring.
As far as the diet. I find if I eat more fruits, veggies and fish, I feel better. I love the night shade foods too, so thats hard for me to give up. Baked sweet potatoes don't seem to be as bad and the white ones and are very tasty.
Well you take care and I hope you feel better soon. Keep us updated and as you have already seen, this group is wonderful! You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Babs
