Suggest Treatment For Rheumatoid Disease

Yes, I am a 60 year old Caucasian woman who has rheumatoid disease. I also have a bright red rash across my cheeks and nose. On my lower neck also. Now another problem comes up too. My toes are bright red with black coloring also. My fingers turn bright red in any cold water, mixing foods for dinner that require hand shaping like a meatloaf turns them the same color also. Not to mention very painful. I m not on any biological at this time due t to severe reactions. I am on platinum. Any help for me? I have taken remicaid, Xeljanz, enbril without luck.
