susandennisTonight while eating dinner, my right hand cramped up so badly that I could not hold the fork. I tried eating with my left and it got an even worse cramp. It was beef stroganoff - all I needed as a fork and I could not hold on to one. Either hand. I've had hand cramps before - usually, now that I think about it - while I'm eating. But never this bad and never both hands at once. I finally gave up.
I tried running hot water over my hands. It didn't help much. I can type - it doesn't hurt but I can feel remnants of the cramps. Same with knitting. Weird o weird.
The cute doctor had me stop the cholesterol medicine for 2 weeks to see if that helped. I couldn't tell a difference. He offered me a muscle relaxer and I said no thanks because mostly the cramps went away quickly. I may rethink.
