    Pringles, splints and exercises

    Yup, new year so new thread!
    Welcome to Pringles, splints and exercises....

    So today I had the hand therapy appointment which I've been referred for 2ce and so it's taken about 2 years... They aren't sure, but she's pretty sure it'll come under nerve pain due to my neck or fibro.

    I've new horrible wrist splints - been pimped and sparkled by Hazel which I have to wear at night and one test she did made the first finger on my left hand go into complete twitch which wouldn't stop until I "stretched and reset the nerve".
    New exercises to be done 3 times a day and go back in a few weeks. She was lovely. The department was so hot I thought I was going to melt!

    So my hands and wrists are really painful, so I'm logging in, going through the boards and logging out!

    I’m sorry you’re so sore, love. Any chance you’re resting tomorrow?
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Today is Mandatory Reconsideration day! I've to finish Marcs and a friend had a letter on 2nd Jan telling her that they've stopped her claim completely and backdating it, so that needs looking at and she can't do it herself.

    Sleeping with splints on is really hard! I woke up about 8 times during the night and finally took them off at 445 this morning so I could get a complete hours sleep before I had to get up....

    Ive no idea what a MR is but hope you get it sorted.....I fall apart with form filling.
    Hope your hands are easier today. Maybe sleeping with splints will get easier as you get used to them???.
    P.S..... who has the Pringles?????

    Not very well. Didn't help the decision arrived just before Christmas and we have no external sources to back us up - he doesn't see a GP regularly as it's all automated prescriptions. No CMHT as he has to have a years break... We're hoping that someone from the CMHT will help back up what I'm saying, but we've got to wait and see..

    MR = Mandatory Reconsideration for benefit decisions.
    Crash ate the pringles - actually he didn't because he's scared of the man on the pringles tubes... Ben ate them....
    My hands are really rubbish today and doing loads of typing today didn't help, but had to be done. I'm going to rest them in a bit...
