I have Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy bad in my lower legs and over the last couple months I have noticed it more and more in my hands. This is makign some things very frustrating. Turning pages when grading papers, reading books, picking up small things like coins or pills, dropping things, typing etc.

I know a bit of it is increased callous formation on my thumbs since I began using a wheelchair (gloved have been ordered) but it is also in my other fingers wich feel stiff and weak. Holding my hand open with my fingers outstretched takes effort, on bad days they are "clawing up" Last two fingers on each hand are weakest and least dextrous.

I know that this is something I will just have to work around, I am asking for tips for simple things to make daily tasks less frustrating.

Thanks for any help.
