Guest guest Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Wow.... I mentioned this same problem to my Rheumy last week, and she explained it to me in a complicated manner. I would much rather refer to it as " trigger finger " . Mine is the ring finger on my right hand. Sometimes, if I have to use a pen to write, my finger locks and the springs back out to the regular position. Also, I will wake up sometimes to find it folded back while all my other fingers are out. Kinda creeps me out.....LOL I'm glad this was mentioned....I was starting to feel like a freak! --- In , N McK <nlmck1551@y...> wrote: > > Not a problem!
