Neurologist: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you. Given your family history, it would be prudent to consult a neurologist. Wish you good health! Nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.

You need to establish a precise etiological diagnosis, whether or not it is genetic. Treatment could be based upon causation. A full neurological evaluation is in order. The right hand issues may be ulnar nerve in origin, and this too, needs attention. Get proactive, as it will provide far better outcomes.
