Okay this is kinda important.
When I sleep at night I wake up with painful stiff and paralizeds hands.
Sometimes it one hand and sometimes both,
I suppose it might help to know that as a child my grandmother beat on my hands with a plunger handle, bent my fingers back for punishment as to not leave any marks on me as the Department of child protections was now interested in the Abuse reports they had recieved against her from neighbors..
So This has just started last couple of months, It is painful, and it's scary the thought of not being able to use my hands jut terrifies me.
I've been to a rhuematologist, she dismissed the rhuematoid diagnosis the VA rhuemy gave me several years ago, but I still have knots in my joints, which she didn't even bother to check, joints of my fingers have burrs, several in fact.
Long story short i have some kind of arthritis, i know repetative use of my hands cause em to swell and be stiff, but I've never had them be immoble for any period of time untill now...It only last a few seconds but i was wondering If anyone else have these systhoms and what ya doctors say..
Just curious Russ

Russ seriously, get another opinion! Your doctor sounds like she isn\'t really interested. Your too precious to take that sort of shit. (excuse my french)
I agree, get a second opinion! Our health is too valuable, to muck around with!
OH was that french, lol... You ever watch those funny home video\'s on tv, the motto is no funny no money ... here in the States the Medical motto is No Money no funny... its funny lol... i tried to report some of the lack of treatments and professional care once and the dang providers threathen to counter sue ME... aint life grand... All they could of done was band me from welfare and gee I had four children at the time I shut up to protect them, not very manly I know, but i had to make a choice I chose my kids..
thanks for carring tho... that feels nice...
