I just hope my hands hold out long enough. I already have terrible arthritis in both hands.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah my hands started acting up when I was in my 30s. Now that I’m in my 40s they cramp and become useless when they’re any amounts of cold.

My wife likes to rock climb but she will only go to the gym if I go. I can handle the pain but my fingers will literally just stop opening and closing. I haven’t gotten the courage to talk to her about it yet.

Do gloves (fingerless for climbing) do anything to help?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I tried gloves for kayaking since my hands lock up during that but I didn’t feel a huge difference.

I probably just gotta see another doctor. The last doctor I talked to wanted me off of adderall before they’d prescribe me anything but then I’d lose my job.

Yes, definitely see a different doctor.

In a better timeline this is one of the many things a Neuralink could be good for

Have you check out the neuro crown devices? They are very work outside and can do some basic games already

I'm still holding out hope for full-dive VR in the next 20-30 years.
