Has anyone found that with the atrophy in the hands that there fingernails are somehow getting smaller too. I get little pains in my fingernails, I've noticed they are ridged. This is some wierd crap.

Do what I do--acrylic nails--and you'll never notice any problems.

Mine have ridges too. Same size though I think. False nails make it too hard for me to type. LOL
