Undiagnosable

I am a 48 year old female who for the past 25 years has had cervical and brain MRIs, cat scans ,numerous EMGs and Xrays. I have been to chiropractors, have had blood work done, and tests I probably don't recall. This all began with numbness on my left thumb which traveled throughout my left hand only, and has remained. Each passing year my symptoms change and with that I re-test with new doctors and old answers they can't find anything. In the last few years I am beginning to lose my fine motor skills and my fingers move on their own,it's as if rubberbands are on my joints. My pinky stays straight and my other fingers go in odd directions, I drop things if i'm not wqtching. I also cannot feel things to pick them up if on a flat surface. Needless to say i'm frustrated with doctors giving up on me 25 years is a long time can you help me in a direction that will give me some hope?  Thank You,  Teena
