hmm? I think it was Maureen who was taking anti-inflammatories. Wasn't
me, anyway. It was a possibility but I am against taking any sort of
drug indefinitely if other solutions are available. And I have some
liver issues. Nothing dire, but it's a reason to go with something other
than tylenol/advil.
If you are going this way you should be aware that taking these drugs
with oh 24 hours of drinking alcohol is very very bad for you. The
damage the drugs to and the damage the alcohol does is multiplied not
added.
In my case, since the situation deteriorated rapidly I went with braces
and surgery on the right hand, which was most affected. I am sometimes
woken up at night by pins and needles in the other hand, which might be
a reason to start with braces again. Don't think I would go to surgery
as it is my left hand.
