hi kathy,
i have the shrunken muscles too, in my hands....the big chunk of muscle, between your thumb and wrist is pretty much flat on both my hands - tho it was concave at one time, so i'm pleased that i've been able to restore a bit of muscle to the area.....however, the improvement has stayed the same for quite some time now, so i think that i won't be adding any more to that spot......the doc says that's what the "dystrophy" part of rsd means, shrunken muscles. as for the enlarged shoulder, i think u might be right about over-working certain muscles when u protect your bad hand.....it might be worth having the doc check it, and maybe consider some physical therapy?....so u don't create a new or different problem?.....if the shoulder is still mobile, that's good but the last thing u need is a frozen shoulder (can u recognize the voice of experience?). hope this answers the question. liz |
