Your host discusses some hand anatomy and some exercises that "might" extend the strength and dexterity of and IBMer's hand.

Hi Jerry, I truly recognise your regrets over your late understanding of the benefits of exercise in the early stages of IBM. I myself suffer progressively from IBM for more than 10 years and my upper limbs and hands are severely impaired. I don’t see the benefit in exercising anymore, apart from passive movement exercises to prevent stiffening of my joints. Kee up your good work on KZbin! Really helpful for me.

Sorry if I gave too much of an impression of a late understanding of the benefits of exercise. If nothing else, I may have been overdoing it, using my son's four station Exercise machine twice a day, without getting a stronger. The benefits of exercising early in this disease is that it helps the compensating muscles not already affected by IBM.

My husband has that. He is 46. He used to be so strong. Now he can't even move. I wish I could help him somehow.
