I have been using an orbital sander (is that what you call them in other countries?) for about half an hour for a home handywoman job . Now that I have stopped, my hands feel like they have thousands of totally painless electric currents running through them. I have used orbital sanders many times in my life, the last time being almost two years ago before any PN symptoms started and although I used to get a minute or two of post vibration feeling in the hands afterwards......this is totally different and feels so weird.

The funny thing is that even though I have had some symptoms in my hands the past three months they have not been as pronounced as elsewhere in the body. What is this showing by this happening?

This is the first time in about eight weeks that I have felt well enough and had any energy or motivation to do something and now this happens.....and I still haven't quite finished the sanding part of the job!
