I have tendonitis. The physical therapist says it's caused by bad posture, but as I am now forbidden to perform certain exercises that I've been doing daily - anything the raises the hand over my head - one has to wonder.

He attached some electrodes to my shoulder to provide stimulation and warmth, and gave me an extremely difficult exercise to do twice a day - while keeping my right scapular down and in, I am to finger walk up and down a wall as high/low as I can for fifteen reps. It's doing, so far as I'm concerned, two things at once and I don't do that well.

He is going to give me other exercises to improve my posture as well. My pakua instructor will seriously love this.

And I guess I'll start wearing my purse around my waist or something.

Your typing gloves sound interesting. I've not had a lot of luck using any sort of brace or wrist rest while typing, but when I'm at home I use a laptop and it's got a lot of space between the end of the computer and the start of the keyboard, so I don't feel a lot of pain here...it's just at work that it's icky.

Incidentally, I feel a little bad because I never mentioned to you that I was adding you to my friends list or asked your permission and you're probably wondering who this crazy woman is who keeps commenting in your journal. I *think* I came across your journal via cellio's journal and I found your posts intriguing and fun to read. I've been lurking around your journal for a little while and just forgot to mention it. My apologies for my lousy etiquette.

I'm glad you enjoy my ramblings.

So long as you don't mind the other stuff I post - the stories about the boys. :)
