i'm an electronics guy and i've always worked with my hands.  I've lost that delicate touch i used to have.  Also, when i'm doing something that is not good(bad hand position), sometimes my thumb will spasm in a way where it just locks in or locks out.

THAT is real scarey.  When you are old it takes a long time for tendons to heal, also.  I hurt my wrist 2 years ago and it's finally almost better. It's hurting right now but it's not sprung and weak.   I would pull out a shopping cart and i'd gasp and have severe pain and it felt like my wrist broke.
