Update.
Two years since my last post.
Now 61.
My hands have got a lot worse.
Now getting pain, worse when the barometer is low.
Unable to work, so no income.
Fortunately my wife works part time.
I do all the meals.
Recently bought a cake mixer & have been getting into baking.
Just surprising what you can still do if you are able to take your time.

I'm still keeping up with the exercise.

Have been seeing a different Neurologist who appears to be taking a bit more interest in my problem.
Some recent tests including a lip biopsy have produced a positive for Sjogren's.
I was surprised at this, as I didn't have the common symptoms, ie dry mouth & eyes.
But have been told this is not always the case.
This was only yesterday, so my Neurologist has yet to decide weather to proscribe any meds.
