Hi DianeLori

Thanks - I'm not sure I'll be able to get the cream over here but that's a great idea!! (I live in the UK), however I can probaly use something like nappy cream or something? (closest I can think of to udder cream!). I live in the wrong area to be surrounded by pastoral farming! It's a good idea to wear fleece if my skin can tolerate it - I'll give that a go tomorrow.

I've been having botox for the last 18 months or so (? dreadful memory) and have it in my thumbs, neck and shoulders (the spasms dislocate my thumbs, dislocate my left shoulder and my neck is pulled to the left really badly) and I don't think I'm allowed any more places done - it's so stupid having to choose which joint to "save"!!. Botox is amazing - having lived with dislocated thumbs for over a year I had the injection and within a fortnight they were 90% spasm free and back where they should be, instead of backwards over my hands.

The spasms are just infuriating though because I can't use my power chair at the moment as someone else has to use the controls which is horrible!! especially as I'm at uni and so have to go out and manage to get round campus somehow and also my lecturers keep forgetting that as I can't move I can't signal when I want to say something or ask a question without screaming it across the lecture halls!

Thanks

Love
