I need to use a FHRED with both oboe and English horn and I love it. I can't play without it, the pain in my right hand is just unbearable -- and will last for days if I even play for just 5 minutes without the FHRED. The only drawbacks (beside looking a little odd) are that you can't cue, and standing up is a little awkward even with the little pouch thingy for hanging off your belt. But I find playing standing up awkward anyway.

I'm not sure your thumb is going to get stronger. It might just get progressively more aggravated, especially if you are no spring chicken, like me!  ;)
