Welcome @toughstuff, That's a hard question to answer. It may not be normal but I'm pretty sure others have similar symptoms and might be able to share their experience. Have you been diagnosed with a form of neuropathy? Do you have any other symptoms?

I have lost all feeling in my fingers. I am constantly cutting them and getting stitches because I no longer feel them.
My husband will not let me cook without him being around. He cuts things up for me. When it first started in my hands I had the nerve pain and tingling. Then your hands start cramping/ spasming up and becoming disfigured due to the nerve pain and spasms it now last sometimes for up to two hours as I wait for the muscle relaxer take affect. My husband massages my hand and pulls my fingers back straight. It hurts really bad my hands still hurt the next morning due to the severe spasming.
