dmn arthritis
well, while we may not have a definitive diagnosis, what i can tell you is that i started having major hand pain before class started today.
it got worse
and worse
the only thing that let me get through it at all was going to the bathroom EVERY single break and soaking my hands in hot water.
the class, of course, was "Life Drawing"
sigh
its not the worst pain i have, but its probably one of the most aggravating when my hands stiffen and start to hurt like that. i mean, if your knee starts trying to stab you to death (which mine does often) i can at least sit or lie down. but when my hips or hands start to hurt there just isnt anything i can DO.
and now, despite massive anti inflammatory drugs, my knees, hips, and one elbow have decided they hate me too. i will be taking knock out pills and going to bed early.
