*Sigh*

I've been off the computer as much as possible the last couple of days and am hoping tomorrow to catch up on my blogging. Had a migraine on Wednesday and then Thursday, yesterday and today........






Yep, the carpal tunnel in my right wrist really started acting up again - aching, pain, numbness, tingling - the whole enchilada.



I have been reading blogs that I follow, just haven't been leaving comments and am hoping that with this rest (and the brace), I can get back to a bit of it tomorrow.



Hoping everyone is having an awesome weekend. Weather here today was gorgeous!

Sorry to hear that Sue but you have to totally stop everthing and it takes a very long time to get better and you already know that so you rest up sweetie and know that were always here for ya! I went in yesterday to your blog and went through many of your links so that was mucho fun. I have to learn to take my camera with me so I have things to blog about. Rest up kid and we'll see ya before ya know it.

oh no! a migrane AND carpel tunnel, yuck! I'm so sorry you feel crappy...
did you at least get rid of the migrane?
Carpel tunnel is becoming pretty common these days, I see lots of people wearing that brace. Sure hope it helps you so you can get back to your normal activities.

take care,
betty

Well, that stinks....

Just take care of YOU, the rest of us will still be here, guaranteed.

You need to rest the hand and get it better so you can continue to create the awesomeness we love :)

That is not good news! The headaches are bad enough without the other! Rest, and feel better!

Dear Sue,
I am so sorry to hear that. I guess you didn't make it to the Opera Atelier sale then. I posted a photo of one of the dresses that I purchased and there will be more to come. Hope you feel better soon! I'm sending a hug your way.

Well we can't have an awesome day knowing one of us is suffering...so sorry. I have someone very close to me who suffers from suicidal migraines at least 3 times a week...it's awful...completely keeps him from having a normal quality of life and he's only 27...I sympathizes.
Massage really helped my daughter carpal tunnel...

Oh, I'm sorry you've been in pain..either the headache or the carpel tunnel would be bad enough, but to have BOTH? Baaaad..Hope you feel better quickly..or as my son said when he was little" get all welled up"
;-D

Carpal tunnel must be miserable. I am such a baby about anything at all that goes wrong with me, even a little cut annoys me. I can only imagine how hard it must be for you to create. I appreciate the comments you make on my blog. I realize it must be very difficult to type on some days. Keep up your spirits. You are a fabulous artist and I absolutely love your posts!

Sue.... can you believe I don't have carpal tunnel? Along with the ganglion...and the De Quervain's... I was sure I did. But. had an EMG and nope... so... now I am just dealing with two rather than three problems...yaaay.... and...the carpal tunnel surgery I had on the right wrist a few years ago? It has worked out wonderfully. The tech ran the nerve conduction tests on it and declared things 100% ...

I've been wearing a brace too..on the left.. and trying not to overdo...but, it's been 6 months since the tendonitis flared up and it's been horrible for all those months. But.. in the last two weeks.. I got damn good and mad about not being able to hold a golf club properly with the brace and so... started swinging a club without it. It hurt like hell at first...but, this week? It feels the best it has in months. so...I'm taking lessons.... if I'm gonna do this golfing stuff....I want to be better at it!

I sure hope yours feels better soon.... take lots of breaks when working on your creations... don't hold things as tightly as we tend to do... blah, blah...I'm sure you've heard it all before. And... if it is bad enough that it is waking you at nights... find a good surgeon and get it done....I sure am happy with the results on my right hand.

Oh nooooo! I'm so sorry you've been in pain. I have just now been getting around to everyone's blogs myself, and I'm so sorry to read this, Sue. I hope you are feeling better again, in the mean time.

Take good care of yourself.

Sending you healing thoughts.

Hope you are feeling better. I've been dealing with sinuses as of late myself and understand the carpal tunnel, got some of that too. Not fun when you want to sculpt!
