Hi For those that have had trigger finger did u find the fingers next to it have pain in them. I have trigger finger in both my ring fingers and find that I get pain in both middle fingers.

I was on the injections for a year, I lost weight although I never lost my appetite and greatly reduced my HBA1C. But it made me randomly vomit and I had a continual feeling of dread. I had to stop taking it and the weight went back on. I’m now trying the tablet version.
