Hello,
I am a 45 year old Male, and It has been 4 years since I developed DC Disease. I have had 2 surgeries thus far. The last was to remove a knucklepad on my pinky finger on the left hand. The Disease for me is progressing rather quickly, and I have been noticing changes often. I experience severe pain in my hands at night, and have to sleep with a hand brace to relieve the pain. I have heard that this Disease is painless, however, for me, that is false. I suffer with pain in my hands often, but it is much worse at night before bed. Does anyone else experience this too?
Thank you, and best wishes to all who are here, suffering with this Disease.

Hi Metzie,

I can't speak for the RT as I temporarily cancelled my RT appointment due to the success (at least in my case) of the specialized DD massage therapy of Stephen Jeffrey (based here in the UK). It's been a month now and all aspects of my DD have now regressed if not disappeared completely. I am right pleased.

I would highly recommend at least trying this kind of regime, one with much fewer potential side effects. I know you are US based, but Stephen is more than happy to share his protocol with a skilled massage therapist who may be close to you.

Cheers,

Meunier
