My arms have become skinny and hands weak. Dale get a grabber stick. Very handy to pick up things.

@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member that’s a great idea. I wonder if they have one that doubles as a cane.

I have found that my fingers are weaker as in. I’m not able to open a bottle of water or some jar lids. Part of this is due to hand trimmers and finger trimmers. My overall strength is less than it was a month ago, which is rather disheartening..

My grip strength is not what it once was. Things slip out of my hands constantly. I’m also unable to retrieve them myself. My family gets very tired of picking things up for me.
