Have they tried physical therapy? I had a flare up about six or seven years ago and couldn't even take wash out of the washer, my hands were useless. Even with the disease process we were able to get most of the strength back in my hands and arms and return to a slower rate of progression. Physical therapists often know much more about what can and can't be regained than doctors.
