Just wondering if anyone with this diagnosis experiences bilateral hand trigger fingers. I had a workup for arthritis but all neg. Just wondering what and if there is a correlation. I am just now getting it after 10 years of HH & my iron is not high.

Google "hand trigger fingers and iron overload" to see if there is any confirmation of this.

I get stiffness and swelling in the pinky n ring finger on left hand... One in awhile I get severe cramps in my hands....I also now get soreness and cramps in my legs. I've been treated for just over a year and I almost feel worse since days. I was 3125 now 57. My iron levels are perfect. I have heard this is part of what we go through.

Yes i suffer from stiff trigger finger right hand and left thumb and forefinger
I have to exercise them daily stretch them and play keyboard and guitar its ok
But hips and back despite all the stretching i do hopeless but will continue as not doing would make me like a board stiff as a plank
