@aaroncush, I am really sorry this discussion was hijacked, I don't believe we can move individual posts but I'm tagging @colleenyoung to see if how we can correct it. It's my bad for responding to @josmay's off topic question earlier in this discussion which generated other responses from @heisenberg34 @snoony2 @brotherchuckles80 and @juliesheff5.

This is an example of how easy it is to go off topic in a discussion and make it difficult for others since this discussion you started had nothing to do with Dupuytren's contracture until a member asked about it.

I know it's the pits to lose a neurologist that finally clicked in helping you only to lose them when they moved out of state. Have you looked to see if you might find a neurologist in the Mayo Clinic Care Network - https://www.mayoclinic.org/about-mayo-clinic/care-network/network-members?

Thanks for the link, although it doesn't look promising - the only local is ASU Health Services and I am a bit old to go back to school😊. In Tucson it is the non-university aligned hospital and they show no specialization. Otherwise, it is small regional hospitals in the corners of AZ. The two most likely medical scenarios are early Sjogren's (tested negative) or neuro-sarcoidosis. This is not a general neurology problem. The plan of action was to try Plaquenil next, and if/when that stopped working, high-dose steroids.
