Fun fun fun
So, to round out our month or so of medical mayhem, I am going to see the doctor Friday to get checked out for carpal tunnel syndrome. I've had stress-pain in my wrists and elbow for so long I hardly noticed it anymore, but this weekend I spent some time cutting up rubber for the new dance floor shocks, and now some of my fingers (on my drawing hand, of course) are numb and weak, classic CTS symptoms. Wish me luck.

Rachel's knee, btw, is doing great. It only needed four stitches, and was over her kneecap, so just got skin and a bit of her infrapatellar pad of fat. She is still on antibiotics from being sick last week, so that's helping to keep infection at bay and it is healing well.

I'm so sure you trotted out "infrapatellar pad of fat". *laughing*

Hope you get your pain straightened out, and glad to hear that Rachel's knee is on the mend.

I think I have CTS too... My right hand went numb for not good reason last night and my left thumb went numb off and on whilst typing this morning. Not to mention the wrist pain I have in both wrists and the fact that my right hand falls asleep while painting. o.O Not good. Why are artists so cursed? :P

*HUGS*
