 Muscle wasting occurs in a variety of conditions, including both genetic diseases, such as muscular dystrophies, and acquired disorders, ranging from muscle disuse to cancer cachexia, from heart failure to aging sarcopenia. In most of these conditions, the loss of muscle tissue is not homogeneous, but involves specific muscle groups (({{pubmed>long:23702032}}))  Muscle wasting occurs in a variety of conditions, including both genetic diseases, such as muscular dystrophies, and acquired disorders, ranging from muscle disuse to cancer cachexia, from heart failure to aging sarcopenia.

 Trigger thumbs are like trigger fingers–they literally get stuck in a certain position. This comes from inflammation involving the tendon. In my case, my thumbs started to feel “strange” and weak. They sometimes tingled and/or ached. When I would bend them after several months of the above, I would feel a snap or a pop. Finally, one became fixed in a bent position and the other in a straight position. The swelling and pain intensified throughout this time in my thumbs and the surrounding area in my palm.</blockquote>  Trigger thumbs are like trigger fingers–they literally get stuck in a certain position.

 I am now in phase 3 and have been on MP for 2.5 years. I did have 1 prednisone shot in my finger but that was a very long time ago. As I have progressed on MP I have no pain in my finger anymore and it is totally functional. No stiffness either. Even my erythema in my palms has dramatically improved. //Debbie y  June 2006// </blockquote> I am now in phase 3 and have been on MP for 2.5 years.

 <blockquote>one of my early herx's was trigger finger acting up. I have had the symptoms of carpal tunnel for years with the peripheral neuropathy that has not gotten any worse on MP, a slight bit better. Both my mom and friend Rose (both on MP) have had surgery on hands, and Rose on her feet too. I feel certain TH1 activity is related to these problems. I think the MP will cut 'em off at the pass and I will avoid carpal tunnel surgery! //P.B.// </blockquote> <blockquote>one of my early herx's was trigger finger acting up.

 After one year on the Marshall Protocol, my shoulder was painfree and I had 100% mobility in that joint without any special exercises and complete resolution of pain. I suggest continue with PT, pain meds as needed and the MP.  and avoiding surgery. //Meg// </blockquote> After one year on the Marshall Protocol, my shoulder was painfree and I had 100% mobility in that joint without any special exercises and complete resolution of pain.

 +Suggesting that 'frozen shoulder' is infectious might not go over well; but you can point to success here. I haven't quite got to 100% like Meg, but there is only an infrequent twinge now and again to remind me that I should exercise a bit more.

 <blockquote>One therapy, years later, that felt wonderful was in a heated pool with a physical therapist at a rehab center.  My muscles responded very quickly to that treatment, and being able to exercise and see the progress gave me an emotional boost.  <blockquote>One therapy, years later, that felt wonderful was in a heated pool with a physical therapist at a rehab center.  My muscles responded very quickly to that treatment, and being able to exercise and see the progress gave me an emotional boost.
