I have arthritis all over and a titanium left hip and an oxidized zirconium right knee. I also have spinal and lumbar stenosis. The latter is currently in check from an epidural steroid shot but I have a great neurosurgeon on call if it stops working.
Recently my hand cramping has gotten worse. I was diagnosed by my primary a number of years ago with carpal tunnel syndrome and went to my hand surgeon. He found that I may have had some of the syndrome but primarily I have arthritis at the base of the thumb in both hands.
Now it is getting worse. So I made an appointment with my hand surgeon for April 24th to see what he can do, preferably non surgically.

I had an implant in my right hand pointer finger. I do many crafts include stain glass and my hands take a lot of abuse. With the plant at the base of the finger I can now use my hand again. Good luck 👍

@steveinarizona your situation sounds like mine. I went to so many arthritis doctors and surgeons and idiots. It would astounded you. My hand was hurting so bad that the arthritis surgeon said he could take it off but he couldn’t put it back on. Turns out they’re all idiots. I had gout. All they would look at are my x-rays and say you’re loaded with arthritis. Order some ZAZZEE tart cherry capsules I think it’s 3000:1. There’s only one on Amazon. You’ll be better in 24 hours. I suffered for 30 years! 30 years and all it was was gout. I have all the other things that you have I’ve had six joint replacement surgeries. I needed those surgeries anyway, but the whole body inflammation the sore, stiff hands and wrist and all the other things attributed to this stenosis in the carpal tunnel, blah blah blah. It was gout pain. Good luck I hope that’s your problem. Let me know if it worked.
