When I write, it is like the muscles in my hands fatigue before I finish what I am writing, and it looks nearly illegible
I have the same problem. I type letters to people and just sign my name. I explain why I type to them. My handwriting is very nice for 1 sentence, a very short sentence! Even addressing an envelope, sometimes it looks like I was drunk when I get done. I often wonder what the doctor thinks when he sees the envelope when signing the checks for me!!!! Well, I do the best I can and that's all I can do.

I have Raynauds, and carpal tunnel/peripheral neuropathy in my hands and wrist.

We urge all doctors to take time to listen to your patients.. don't "isolate" symptoms but look at the whole spectrum. If a patient tells you s/he feels as if s/he's falling apart and "nothing seems to be working properly", chances are s/he's right!
