My fingers have never curled up, but they sure do swell up. The only time they resemble fingers is while I am still in bed, but once I get up the edema swells them up -- it's not really that bad, but down in rehab, they had me wearing gloves to try and keep the swelling down. It didn't work, so I decided that fat fingers were better than fat fingers inside gloves. LOL.

It actually resembles my life/injury just a bit as I was injured in football practice in college in '97(while blitzing I collided with another player). I'm a C5 quad so it peaked my interest more becuase I wanted to see how well they get this whole quadlife right. Are there any other quads out there whose fingers didn't curl up, mine didn't. mine didn't, they were very straight until i had tendon transfers, now they are and both pinkies are curled tight. diane
