Prismm99, could I please ask for a couple of clarifications? Can you say why NOT the blue? It clearly has some sort of blue dye or coloring in it. But in one of the links provided by another poster, she is recommending Dawn, and is holding a bottle of the blue.

"Instead of Synthrapol, you can use clear (not blue) Dawn dishwashing liquid in the machine. "
2nd question: I may be misreading this, but this sentence doesn't make sense to me, as it reads :
"Do not use a front-loading domestic machine; it does not use enough water. A domestic front-loader is fine, as are the larger laundromat front-loaders".
Thanks for your experience and sharing.
I empathize your potential thumb joint reconstruction. I too am looking at that exact procedure next year. I am not willing to give up that long healing and non-sewing time yet. And yes, it does progress and gets worse.Just keep my thumb brace on 24/7. Fortunately it's my left non dominant hand.
