[Nfb-krafters-korner] Knitting with Fibro and/or other issues

[Neva Fairchild]

Yes, I often experience that when crafting, and after nerve conduction tests
learned that I have mild carpel Tummel. I take a break, let my arms dangle,
unbend everything and in a few minutes it subsides. It's annoying but not so
much that I will stop crafting. I even experience it when I am typing on my
cell phone to send a text or e-mail.

Hello everyone, this is going to be a cross post, so forgive me if you
receive this more than once.
I am wondering if anyone has any tips on how to deal with fingers going numb
while knitting. I have fibromyalgia which mostly affects my shoulders, after
loom knitting for a bit, especially in the mornings, I find that some of my
fingers go numb.
Has anyone else experienced this and if so, what tips do you have for
eliminating it?
Thanks so much in advance,
Barb R.
