Yes, I get that. It usually means I'm low in Omega 3's. It's always

in the same two fingers and feel it when I first wake up in the morning

and go to move my hand. Feels just like arthritis -- hurts more if I

haven't been moving my hand for awhile.

My son complained of his finger all the time after we started DMSA.

It may have started a bit earlier with ALA, but the problem was worse

with the addition of DMSA. Andy said it might be peripheral

neuropathy or stocking and glove parathesia. If you look up these

terms, you will find some good information. Both are related to

mercury and/or lead moving around messing with your central nervous

system. This may or may not be your issue, my son can't talk much so

I am out of luck not having any description of how it feels.
