Have gotten the doc out again about my arm. The pain is unnatural, and my hat is off to anyone who suffers physical pain. I can't sleep at night, but at least now I'm on painkillers and paracetomol, so hopefully the worst is over. It turns out that I more than likely have a rotator cuff injury, sustained from breaking a fall in egypt a few weeks ago. This apparently is a common injury for long term chair users. Any independance you have goes down the toilet. Putting any pressure on the right arm results in excruciating pain. Superwoman is finding it extra tough, as I can't even turn myself in bed without an eye watering stabbing pain. I just dont believe in pain killers, people running for them at the slightest inconvenience, pain is your bodies way of alerting you that there is something wrong. Thankfully my arm loosens up a good bit during the day, so I have still been able to go to work, but have decided to take action, so I am now using Aulin gel. Hope it works because I am tired of boring, long inactive and sometimes fiercely painful weekends!
