Re: Advice re: what not to do
I have been reading all ur posts and no one has mentioned xiaflex that I know of. Have you looked into Xiaflex. It's a protien and has opened up two fingers stuck to the palm and eliminated the scar tissue from surgery and eliminated the collagen build up on cords from DD. I wear a FIXGLOVE nightly. 1 1/2 yr been since xiaflex changed my life. I can do almost anything now that the strength in my hand has returned. SOME fine motor skills needed in pinky. However, I have learned to be mindful every day doing things differently to not irritate the nodes and cords. I am very pleased with the results from xiaflex. Also tried needle therapy and surgery before xiaflex was approved in the US. I was not a candidate for RA. Also had cortisone shots in nodes and the injection did shrink the nodes to half their size in all 5 nodes. Never got bigger in over a year. I am very happy with my hands. I also do home ultra sound on nodes in my palms & seems to keeps them from getting larger or painful. It takes time to see results and exercises is important to learn from this site. Do them daily. Also use coconut oil and magnesium spray on palms for ultra sound massage. Helps my feet as well. That's a whole other story. Happy Trails, Cherrise
