I did the first night and at first it felt good, at 2 Am i woke up feeling a swarm of bees had infested my hand, when they say gently stretch.. that is EXACTLY what it means.. IMHO, it's an alternative worth looking into.

I got tested with the nerve conduction test and have it in both hands
I found this website and it appears to be the system you mention Joe.

I will look into this further tomorrow

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

I'm Still pain free and good, Nancy is using the system now...she only needed 3 days to have the numbness gone. Now if fixing my ailing shoulder was only that easy. |
A good run is better than a bad stand!

I had the surgery on Tuesday morning. Day two and I am pleased to say I have almost all my feeling through all my fingers and none of the symptoms that were waking me up every night. The incision is sore, but one would expect that. I can do what I want, right up until the incision says "that's enough." Two nights without it waking me up!
