Wind Rattling The Pain

Spelling is not a virtue.

I shouldn't be writing this right now. My hands are killing me. I was wrong about the carpal tunnel. That is on the palm side of the hand. My pain is on the back of the wrist, so it's probably some sort of tendonitis. It spread to both wrists by Sunday. Between typing for work and the crutches, I never really get to give it a rest.

When I went in to tell my bosses about this, and tell them that I may need to take a day off to recover, they sort of stared at me blankly and then told me to work from home to reduce the amount of time on walking around on the crutches. Essentially, they told me, I should keep working and move around less. Thanks for the support fellas.

So, I can't walk, I can't write (well, obviously, I'm breaking the rules a little) and it hurts to do pretty much anything. I have to say that this whole situation is beginning to wear on my patience. I'll deal with it. Acupuncture on Friday, a call to the orthopaedist today to try to get off the crutches sooner (hopefully she'll call me back) and, in the mean time, I'm going to try to impose writing radio silence and minimize my typing for work.

Signing out.
