weak hands?

Post Reply New Topic

I am left handed and the cordination in my right hand is very stiff and limeted, at frist i though that everyone was like that, there non- dominant hand being draticly weaker. but i resently realized that isnt so. does anyone else notice this?





*It makes it hard for me to finger pick guitar, since I first learned, and still play, right handed*

Both of my hands shake, but my left hand shakes significantly more than my right.

When I was examined before military service (which I then never went to anyway) my arms and legs were on the upper scale of strength, but my hands were weaker then average. My hands almost always shake a little bit. The shaking is sometimes very significant in the ring finger or long finger on my right hand. I'm more right handed then left handed, but for some reason I think I was born left handed. I can use my left hand almost as good as my right hand for most things except for writing, despite the fact that both hands are weak. I have small hands, almost like a woman or a child. But my NT brother also has small hands, but his are very strong.

I have strong arms and hands, and my hands are also fairly big (though not disproportionately so), but they shake really badly most of the time. I find it very difficult to use paints or glue, and keeping my handwriting neat is physically painful.

I am right handed but prefer to hold a guitar left-handed. Not that I can play, but if I did....

I always assumed the shakiness was some sort of nerve damage from the hyper- and hypo-glycaemia caused by my diabetes. But maybe it's an AS trait? I am also generally more nervy that I used to be - everyday sounds which I used to ignore make me jump now.

My hands are fairly strong, but boy they are clumsy. Especially with handwriting

I'm pretty sure it's an aspie trait with shaky hands. Yesterday I drank some single malt and took some valium (yes, I know I shouldn't) and today my hands are almost not shaky at all. Strong doses of B-vitamins and some antidepressants can also make the shaking stop or diminish.

I'm dopey with body co-ordination, in terms of walking I'm very clumsy, my forearms and hands are my strongest feature definately, though maybe the 7 years of guitar strengthened them up.

My hands do tend to shake, and my right hand is very weak compared to my left hand (I'm left-handed). I can't move my right hand fingers nearly as fast as my left hand fingers, and my left hand is generally a lot stronger than my right.
