Watch the $760 miracle medical procedure that reversed a severe case of Dupuytren's Contracture, aka Viking Disease! See the hand straightened before your very eyes! Relive the angst of Moore's "Sicko" when you learn my giant HMO denied payment! This is the same surgery as chronicled in the 0724 NY Times performed by the same doctor.

Yes, although "cured" is an overstatement. He definitely reversed though, which is to say took it back in time to where it was not a problem and my hand could lay flat. Note that the doctor says I should come back for a second treatment -- I am doing that in late October. Would expect that to last for 3-5 years. Inexpensive and non-invasive and no trauma. It's cool!

My husband had this procedure done by the same doctor. He is excited to have the use of his hand back, without cutting it open and long rehabilitation.

Wow, that's great! Dr. Klien was pretty cool about letting my wife film his work with our little Kodak digital camera. I only started seriously looking at options in May and found out about NA two weeks before the NY Times article came out. So lucky and so glad. Thanks for watching.

@andy5eight Sorry to hear it. The only pain I have is from the physical therapy I do every day. That keeps the joints sore. Hopefully I won't have to do this much longer.

@SocTrangWarrior i had my pinky N/A released pretty good a couple months ago but now its bent again. the dr told me to try the enzyme on it.

@andy5eight In an internet search I found a place around Houston but went to Dr. Eaton in Jupiter Florida. My hands were worse than the ones in this video but now I can straighten my fingers, including my thumbs which I couldn't raise before. Some of my fingers were bent 135 degrees. My palms are now smooth, no lumps. Nothing is injected in this procedure. The doc is using the needle to cut the cords. It isn't painless but recovery is quick.
