Hello sirfletcherdavis,
I realize this post is 5 years old but I’m currently dealing with FD.
Your post here has been literally the ONLY useful information on this condition that I can find on the internet. I have even reached out to Victor Wooten and all he said was ‘I have still not cured my condition’ basically he doesn’t know what to do and is coping around it when he plays. Unfortunately Joacquin Fabra’s website is long gone, I hope that you see this and will reach out. Seems we cannot PM each other here?
I am currently suffering from this condition in my fretting (left) hand and would love to know more about how you cured it 100%. I would like to cure it so that I can get back to playing but I also plan to document the recovery process of this condition so that no one ever has to suffer blindly again. It is astounding how little information there is on FD. Thank you so much for what you have posted here, again it has been the only light in the darkness for me.

I think the reasonyou could not PM is that your post had not yet been approved by a moderator (it’s a requirement only for the first post from a new user).
You should be able to exchange contact info privately now, so I removed your email address from your post — just in case you prefer some extra privacy!

Thank you, unfortunately I don’t see a way to PM sirflectcherdavis, either on this page or on his user page.
If you click on a user name, you should see an option that says “message”.

Hi sirfletcherdavis,
It really is fantastic information. On its own it has been very useful and i notice a slight improvement in my condition daily, because now when my fingers curl up I remember to start paying more attention to the movements and my attitude towards playing.
I guess what I was wondering is if Joacquin taught you any specific exercises or practical stuff to speed up your recovery? I hope he is ok and I would love to get in contact with him. Thanks again for the excellent post.
