Hi Christie: Wow! Your poor fingers. Like the rest have said, you need
to rotate fingers. It's not that hard once you get onto it. You have 8 fingers. If you hit each side of those fingers: 16 spots(can you imagine??????????????). Not to mention the middle of each finger: Another
8 spots. Two thumbs: 2 sides each and middle: 6 more spots.
HMMMMMMMM..I count about 30 Happy spots to your unhappy 8 spots.
I am right-handed, but I sure do test with my left hand also..........have to.
