Pain in knuckles/hands

My SIL called me tonight. Her husband has had prostate cancer and went thru chemo and irradiation. He is taking Gabapentin, Lyrica and for the pain Oxycodone. He is having the tingling, burning, pins and needles in his hands/feet and almost unable to walk because of these issues. HE is somewhat okay as long as he is taking the Oxycodone, once that wears off he is back to his almost immobile state. I told his wife I would get on line to see if any others in our field has dealt with similar issues ...

I really don't know what Trump's sniffling was about, but all I could think about was how I want to hand the docs a tissue and tell them to go blow their nose when they are dictating and snorting. Maybe he has pneumonia and snorts coke? When Clinton got into her subject, she was really good. It is too bad she is not more comfortable when speaking, then she would be phenomenal. Wow, Trump turned into a babbling fool that last half. ...

How many of us here dabbled in witchcraft as a teen? I got to thinking about O'Donnell's defense which seems to be the standard, "Who didn't do this when she/he was a teen?". I must have been the biggest stick in the mud when I was a kid. I never broke the law. I never stole things. I never raced my parents' car. I didn't smoke or drink. My parents liked my friends and my friends parents liked me. I never dabbled in witchcraft. Gee. I guess I am not quali ...

This is a silly pet peeve of mine. First let me say that I don't like the "turn around and greet your neighbor" in church where everyone shakes hands. Immediately afterwards I have a strong urge to wash my hands, and try to remember to bring the antiseptic wipes. It is not healthy, but here's my main issue (As Jane Velez-Mitchell would say) I always thought that women should not shake hands. To me it is just a manly thing to do, and just t ...

Is anyone else doing VR beginning to have problems with your hands? I started VR about 6 months ago, have been doing transcription for 30 years, but the last month my right hand and up my inner arm from wrist to elbow has been absolutely killing me, painful all the time and now I cannot even hardly hold a pen and write without causing more pain. Went to the doctor today and he says it is from the repetitive motion, stretching from the main keyboard to the up/down arrow keys and comma ...

I have been editing for the last few years and just got a new account that I was really looking forward to because it is straight transcription for now....but my hands are so sore and uncoordinated halfway through my shift I can barely make it I would go on a split shift if they would let me. Any suggestions for sore hands. ...

I'm a recently graduated newbie and hoping to get a job soon. My question for you experience MTs out there is how do you keep your wrists and hands from hurting from the hours of typing? Is it all in the ergonomics? If so, how do you sit & keep your hands up? Should I get a wrist brace or an ice pack? Any suggestions?? ...

Time to break the silence on Saturday's GOP debate. This article was published in the Telegraph. IMO, GOP foreign policy debate sank to slightly below the national disgrace level. Republican hopefuls would go to war with Iran Mitt Romney, the favourite to clinch the party's candidacy, said that he would direct US forces to pre-emptively strike Iran's nuclear facilities if "crippling sanctions" failed to block their ambitions. "If all else fails, if after ...

When you are talking with your family and freinds do you talk with your hands (move them around to illustrate what you are saying). My DH does. In fact I don't think he can't, and there are times where he'll say to me "are you watching" and he wants me to watch his hands. Sometimes I have to stop myself from laughing. I on the other hand do NOT talk with my hands. I tried it once and it felt very unatural. On top of that DH asked me wha ...

Hey friends, I have a slightly worrisome growing dilemma. My 14yo son has always been somewhat over-zealous about hand washing, but of late it has become quite a problem. I remember telling my friends about this a couple of years ago, but now the repercussions have become severe. He washes his hands wayyyy too often. Just in the time after school and before bed it's at least 12 to 15 times, with more during the day at school. I try to buy him moisturizing hand ...

Hi guys, I have had peripheral neuropathy from diabetes for a number of years. Started in my hands to the point where I almost changed careers, but that went away and it started in my feet. About that time, I got to sign up as a test subject for Lyrica for PN, luckily I was one of the subjects that got the medicine right off. Noticed a change during the first few days. Love the stuff. Anyway, I have started to lose feeling in my hands altogether. It is starti ...

Carelessly negligent with our nation's security using private server, Hillary names a scientist who gave US information. Hillary Clinton recklessly discussed, in emails hosted on her private server, an Iranian nuclear scientist who was executed by Iran for treason, Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., said Sunday. Read the full story at the Washington Examiner I can only hope Wikileaks can come up with more information that was on that server and Hillary is finally indicted. And this reckles ...

A gathering of black congressional staffers and other Capitol employees stood silently on the House steps Thursday and raised their hands in the air to protest the killing of unarmed black men by police. The demonstration was organized by the Congressional Black Associates and other groups representing minority employees of Congress to show support for protests around the country following the killing of Garner and 18-year-old Michael Brown, whose death in Ferguson, Missouri, inspire ...

New commission can make decisions without even notifying Congress. UNITED NATIONS Congress would be cut out of decisions impacting the national economy and laws under the terms of an international agreement President Obama has negotiated and intends to sign. The pact also essentially moves the national economy out from under the constraints of the U.S. Constitution. The administration on Thursday finally released the text of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a global regulatory deal it h ...

Indiana Michigan Power has requested permission from the state to raise overall electric rates 14 percent due to the environmental mandates placed by the EPA.

Hey, m'lovely MT sisters, I suspect I have bursitis in my right shoulder. It started as pain in my right arm biceps area and I had an odd rash in the area, so to be honest I was afraid it might have been shingles (never had them, but heard they're very painful). Ladies, it's been about 6 weeks and it's still freakling painful, but I believe I was wrong on precisely where the pain was originating. I believe it's emanating at my right shoulder joint. I&# ...

I have been an MT/QA for 24 years. I have fibromyalgia, arthritis, have had bilateral carpal tunnel release, and I have cervical impingement. I tried a new product called Evolv enhanced water beverage which has a formula called Archaea Active. It claims to "promote a healthy inflammatory response." Honestly, I was skeptical about it, but I am here to testify that this is truly a Godsend!! It was explained to me that it increases oxygen at the cellular level and ...
