Herb welcome. Perhaps it could be circulation???Did u ask ur neuro or GP ?? OR What I do is I wear istoner type gloves or leather gloves with slightly loose insulted gloves over the leather ones. open and close ur hand maybe ?? Do u use a cane with that hand?? ok sorry i have to add this in. really weird. BUT while I was tying this reply the doorbell rang. FED EX. No answer , so I did the worse thing and opened the door by myself. MY big brother fedexed a pizza from LOU MALANATI'S PIZZERIA (WWW.LOUTOGO.COM) U see he has spoken to me in years. After our parents died he could not stand illness. Maybe this is a ssign that he is accepting the neurodegenerative illness. and i guess I can always rely on my big brother after all. I would email this to him but ont know his email, just that he is at the Marriot on michigan in chgo.Boy I am lucky. Yesterday I couldn't take the PDand the added symptoms. MY aid quit for the umpteenth time, I cried on the senior van, jada jada So herb how's this fit into ur question?? How can we have humor on this list and laugh at oneself even on the crapiest moments. ??? ok the pizzia was packed in dry ice and I have delayed reaction to touching the ice. I grabbed the pie box out of excitement and ouch my finger tips on my fight hand sortof hurt. For a split sec the dry ice was cold:) nancy m.
