two things that help me... | Arthritis Information

I got a steering wheel cover for my car. My hands kept cramping up and I thought if I got one of those snap in place covers for the wheel it would make it fatter and easier to grip. When I got to walmart and started looking, they had these ones that were called Ergo. They feel like suede and have that memory foam stuff in them. It is amazing how much of a difference it makes. It is soft and comfortable, and the wheel is easier to hold.  I got the matching seatbelt pads and they are nice too.

The other thing that I have been using is one of those rubber tipped baby spoons. Sounds funny I know, but I have had the worst mouth sores and big spoons and metal bumping against them really hurt. I dug out one the baby spoons I had left from when I still had babies in the house. It was great. A lot less painful to eat.
