Oxaliplatin, perhaps? My kind oncologist agreed that I didn't actually need this particular drug when I "claimed" to be a musician. So, it's often worthwhile discussing alternatives if one is unfortunate enough to be in that position. I still had to take something else though and, of course, everyone's circumstances are different. On a less serious note, as has been said, it's best to not allow hands to get too soft in water. Having said that, I've always liked to do a lot of swimming but if I play and practise enough in between, this isn't usually too much of an issue. Perhaps, it's not a good idea to swim 50 lengths on the morning of a gig, of course. :-)
