I dont think Dupuytren's Contracture is what I have. I have had hand x-ray before and it showed osteoarthritis with spurring.
Thank you for the link Mrs.D.
Its a waste to stop the SAM-e because my husband bought several boxes of 200mg. Oh well.....
I tried Tiger Balm, Icy Hot Cream/Gel.... I tried Salonpas pacthes for my back but not for my fingers.
Actually, I thought of soaking my fingers in Epsom but for now I only soak my feet on a daily basis. You think it will help?

Salonpas patches OTC may help. The original ones can be cut to size to fit over fingers.
Have you soaked that hand in epsom salts?
If the SAMe is making you anxious, you may not need it.
Side effects are more common in people who already have enough SAM being made in their bodies.
I am also wondering about that finger...
Is this what you have?

Have you seen a hand specialist at all? |
