The doctor said I had tendonitis. Which sucks. I am trying to rest my arms, but that means actually not doing anything at all that involves hands. Oh god. So far today I have watched five episodes of Firefly and been out to buy a wrist splint and ibuprofen gel. The wrist splints make my arms feel bionic and impervious, but I am wary of letting it go to my head. The light on the edge of my dark cloud is BSG season 2, which arrived today.

... I think I'll try a very small amount of writing and see how it feels.

Bummer about the tendonitis, but with any luck you'll recover quickly? And in the meantime don't the wrist braces make you feel just a little like the wrist guards samurai characters always wear in anime? Like you should really go fling a sword about just because you happen to be wearing them?

In any case, congrats on BSG arriving. It's such an awesome show. And I hope you're not entirely cut off from writing because that would be enough to drive a body mad, right there.

I got the best results when wearing my wrist brace all night long.

Aikido wrist stretches to warm up your wrists and hands before using them help, too.

Ooh, you are in the wars medically at the moment, aren't you? I hope you feel better soon *huggles*!

Btw, would you guys like to come over to ours for dinner sometime at the end of September?

You need a dictaphone! Or a scribe. You could lie on the couch and dictate pr0n . . .

I'm sorry about your desease :( Hope you get better soon. I also have troubles with one of my hands now; that kind of stops me from writing things longer than an lj comment, wich sucks.
Best wishes to you.

Oh no! Ouchie ouchie ouchie. Do take care (and be careful with that gel - a friend of mine overdid it and ended up throwing up violently in reaction). [hugs and sends you a virtual martini]

Tendonitis really sucks. I've had it in my knee and they did something called iontophoresis and it really helped; they put a patch of antiinflamatory med on the joint with this super fancy circuit and blinky light. Don't know if they do that with arms, but worth asking about. It cut down the pain faster than anything. Hope you feel better soon!
