Takin it in tomorrow.
I been tryin new arthritis meds and my hands are getting a little
better. Maybe if things continue to get better I will be able to work
on scoots again. Right now the only option is having it done and that
is as frustrating as anything I have experienced!

I wish you the best of luck with your hands !! I make a living with mine ,
as well as most of my hobbies involving hand skills . I can't even imagine
having to let someone else work on my stuff . Not to mention the added cost
...
Not to be personal , but what has your doctor got you on ? I'm doing
Celebrex right now for my back , but my doc's trying to wean me . We'll see
how that goes .

No prob...Oxaprozin. 1200mg once a day. I notice slight improvement
already.

I'm hoping I can get back to working on the scoot before the year is
out. I also want to be able to fish more often. I am just glad it is
degenerative arthritis not osteo. Knuckle replacement is a viable
option as the worst ones are my thumb base knuckles. Makes gripping
tools a little painful.

Backs are a whole different ball game. I have compressed disks and
have to be careful about how I lift objects. If it goes out a few
percecets(sp) at night and i'm usually good to go again.

So far, riding does not bother the hands very much. I guess I'm just
lucky that way.

Take care of the back and have a libation on me...Oh Shirley, one for
Snag please.

Best cure for the arthuritis is vibrating handlebars. Insurance should
cover it.

Bike was done yesterday. It was the nut that holds fifth gear in the
tranny. It was loose. Everything else checked out ok!

Turned out better than I thought.
