That has to be reducing your range of motion. Has your doc approved this? Have you tried Lidoderm patches as well?

At night, experiment with laying on your side (your back to your husband) with your "bad" had resting on a down pillow away from any covers, without the glove.

While water falling on my hand hurts (the shower), still warm water feels great (pool, ocean, tub w/ Epson Salts.)

Yes, my Dr. knows about the glove. He agrees with you about the range of motion so that is why I have reduced my time wearing it to what it is now instead of never taking it off.

I will try this suggestion, thanks so much.

I try to not take a shower due to the pain of the shower hitting my arm. I like my bath time, I can gently ease my arm into the warm water and that is where I do most of ROM exercises. The hard part is getting out of the tub and having the cooler air hit it....ugh, it seems like I am paying for that 30 minutes.
