I, too, have terrible osteoarthritis in both my hands and wrists; it came on REALLY fast, basically within a little over a year. I was off work for seven months (June -January) on short-term disability and have recently rejoined the workforce and the pain sometimes is just horrible that I can't sleep at night. I’ve always worked with my hands and can’t believe that all of a sudden, I can hardly make a fist or sometimes do regular everyday tasks without help or using my other hand for strength. I had carpal tunnel surgery on both hands in November of last year, two weeks apart, and also had a trigger thumb and finger fixed at the same time. Both hands were great; now, just about every finger has pain. They did blood work last week, and everything is within normal limits, so thankfully, I don't have anything wrong with me, but I also don't have any answers or any ideas for the pain either. I’d really appreciate any help you can provide.
