@dbeshears1 -- Yes, come to think of it, my "bolts of electric" have slowed up as well, perhaps with warmer weather, more outside walking around?? Gotta wonder what's next down the road. It is very weird how we all share some symptoms but not all the same. Also, lately I'm experiencing more fingertip numbness which creates a challenge in taking pills. I'm thinking it might just be easier to put them on the floor to take them! Now that we are getting into warmer weather, my unusual sweating will be on the increase, a result of my sensory issues.

I spoke too soon - got a jolt reminding me it’s not over last night 🤪. So again the weirdness - you sweat, I don’t. Sometimes I think that’s why it pains me to be outside in the summer, I’m burning on the inside. The good thing about being at a swimming pool is that it keeps me in the water often, doing some exercises that are very good for us!

Hi NJ Ed - Numb fingers are definitely frustrating and affect fine motor skills. I can't feel pills either and really have to watch what I'm doing when I fill my weekly pill dispenser. The bigger frustration is trying to turn pages in a book, magazine, newspaper or anything with more than one page. It seems like a simple task, but not for me. All my fingers including my thumb quiver when I bend them so when trying to pick up something small it tends to flip out of my hand. Makes me feel silly.
