Default losing finger control
Went to put on make-up yesterday and my fingers weren't working well. Had a hard time picking things up and applying things. It was like watching a 2 year old try to write. This has never happened before, but it was a little scary. Is this a progression of the neuropathy? Or maybe the mg they are testing me for. Anyway, anyone else have this happen to them?

Sometimes medications can do this too.

I have days where I drop stuff all the time. Other days when I don't. I've had carpal tunnel for 30yrs, which is pretty much under control. But I drop things in the kitchen all the time.
Some of this may be age. Some the neuropathy.

Default Losing finger control
I too, am having problems with the fingers. The fingertips hurt from typing. Not so much that I can't type at all, but finger placement on the keys is getting to be a problem.
Also, my index finger on my right hand looks like I've hit the end of it with a hammer. The nail is partially black, and the finger is much colder than the other fingers on that hand. Hmmmm? Any ideas, anyone?
