I can tell within about ten minutes of waking up what kind of hand day I am going to have. There most days when things are perfectly normal. There are the days that I can feel muscles contracting and releasing without my telling them to. And there are the days where I have to think my way through holding things and use two hands at all times less I drop what I am doing with a hand spasm. <\/p>\n
I think I hate the hand spasm days the most. Probably because I can\u2019t predict when my hands are going to work and when they are not. I have learned to see the signs that I am about to lose my grip and if I am careful I can compensate for it. It just can take me twice to three times as long to do a simple task.<\/p>\n
Apparently I have had these tremors for a while but only recently have they become problematic. What I put down to being a klutz was early versions of things going on now. At least I know what is going on and know how to deal with it.<\/p>\n
But it is frustrating at times that I have to plan my activities based on what my hands will let me do today. I can\u2019t tell you the number of times while writing this I have had to backspace and correct an errant keystroke from a finger that just decided that it wanted to push a key as well. So it takes me longer to type and make sure things are spelled correctly. Auto correct can only do so much. <\/p>\n
Sewing can be an adventure in itself and I think I am shying away from doing so because I am worried what I will and will not be able to do. I just need to bite the bullet and see what I can do today. <\/p>\n
I do know that I have catboxes in my near future and that will be an exercise in itself. <\/p>\n
Again none of this is life threatening. I am not losing one iota of my life span because my hands shake. It is a life annoying problem and I just have to deal with it and considering what some of my other friends are dealing with, this is minor. <\/p>\n
I am grateful for a good grip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
