I am just going to ask my PCP for another referral back to the OT. The OT I had was great & she told me to come back if she could be of further help. She had the equipment & custom made the splints. If it’s OK to mention a brand here, my braces are Top Shelf Orthopedics. I have Medicare & a supplement so everything was covered by insurance under Durable Medical Equipment with the proper billing codes. I have my own wax machine, wax and need to get more disposable gloves. Someone also suggested heating pad so I am going to look for heating gloves. I have all kinds of adaptive equipment for the kitchen & also try to make things like soups in my crock pot or instant pot so I have a lot of healthy one pot meals. Actually, my husband does a lot of everything to help me. My Rheumatologist told me what I have and was as positive as yours (lol). I don’t take anything other than Tylenol for pain. EOA is something I think they gave its’ own name in about 2011 & they say only 3% have it. I wish their were studies we could join but haven’t found anything in the U.S. yet. Want to check nih.gov.
