Talk about a great Forum....we even give medical advice!
Being trained in classical piano and then playing in Rock bands I was pretty bad playing the pedals anyway!

Actually it's a miracle prescription !

I was treated with a shock of medprenisone and betamethasone (Celestone) but M.D endocrinologist told me about the risk of repeating it too often.

Hungry, ungry, weight gain, etc.etc.

Don't intend to give medical advice, just my experience as patient.

Best,

Rafael

helped somewhat.

That was going to be my suggestion. I went through a period where I had
to get one in my right hand about once a year for a few years. Miracle
drug!
