burning/tingling sensation before growth of nodules?
I've just been diagnosed with Dupuytren's, a large nodule on left hand appeared about a month ago and subsequently have been having more or less constant aching and a burning/tingling sensation in that palm and fingers of left hand.
In last few days, though, I've noticed the same burning/tingling in my RIGHT hand as well. Can't feel anything in the way of nodules in that hand, but can't help but fear bilateral disease. Did anyone here have similar experience of anticipatory tingling/burning in a seemingly unaffected hand prior to onset of symptoms?
thanks in advance, Molloy

Molloy; That is the norm for me but doesn't always mean a new nodule. Just means action happening. Sometimes leads to a nodule other times just a bit of distortion and sometimes a new chord. But always that itchy crawly feeling first.

I've noticed those types of feelings as well. Also the palm of my hand just seems hot and tight.

Isn't this the ideal stage to consider RT? I had RT when my right hand started to tingle (the left was too far gone) and have had no further progression during the last four years.

Re: burning/tingling sensation before growth of nodules?
yosh01, So you were able to get RT performed on a hand that had no visible symptoms of DD? That's the situation with my right hand--no nodules, cords, nothing more than the slight burning/tingling I think I detect there, less than in my left hand which has a nodule but noticeable. Did you get treatment in the US, or somewhere else?
best, Molloy

I had the hint of a nodule in my palm, but from my experience in my other hand I knew the DC was starting. I had my RT done at the University of Minnesota. There's a contact in the RT list of this website.

Did you have any problems getting this covered by insurance, since your symptoms in the radiated hand were so minor? best, Molloy

I had no trouble with insurance. Dr. Dusenbery contacted them on my behalf. I was lucky to find her.
