My right hand has been bothering me for a little while now. Some days I'll wake up and it's a bit swollen. but within a couple hours, it's back to normal.

But these last couple weeks, my fingers have been a bit sore. I figured it was because I click all day on my mouse.

Went to the dr today and he was shocked at how swollen my fingers were and said yes, it's arthritis. Suggested I take glucosomine (sp) since it's int he beginning stages.

I was wondering, is this going to severely affect me in the future with quilting? I don't want to invest loads of money in the craft if one day I'm going to find myself not able to do it.

I don't' do hand sewing/quilting, but was hoping to learn it one day. One day, I was hoping to get a large quilting machine to start a quilting business from home. I'm wondering if I should just keep an eye on today and not plan too far into the future.

This is very new to me so I'm a bit freaked out by his diagnosis. :(
