Title probably used up half the typing I' ve got allocated for this. OK, short version:

Last week, I overused right hand, and right shoulder was already cranky.
Wednesday was bad. Thursday was scary bad. Friday was past that.

[Trouble is in outside of wrist up to little finger. Elbow has improved. Shoulder has big ow. At least my clavicle and its fiber-based friends are no longer in berserker mode.]

Splint, icing, elevation, theracane, and almost no use of the arm is helping.
A lot of improvement, but need to not use it Sunday as well.
We'll see what Monday does. Maaaybe a tiny bit of use.
(I do practice using my left hand but it's not up to speed.)

I could use some encouragement that helps me resist the temptation to start in working too early and too much. Yes, I am asking for encouragement.

Not asking for medical advice, mostly because my body is weird, I can't take NSAIDs and loathe most pain meds, and I can't type out all the peculiarities, so yeah, probably no meds advice. But stuff like reminding me to elevate the dang thing more? That, you can encourage. Please do!

OK, I go get coldpack, elevate stuff, and watch some more shows I never watch and make cranky comments.
If you don't have an account you can create one now.
