Patience.. I need patience

Photobucket


That's what the Doc said today. Does he not know me?!?!?! I am the least likely person to have patience! I have to wear the splint for another 4 to 6 weeks. Its going to take time for it to heal. I have had the pain on and off since May, so its going to take at least that long to heal he said. I am itching to get back to knitting!

At least I don't have to go back to physical therapy. I can do the exercises at home, and with the ultrasound/electric stimulation not really making a difference he said I could stop. Which is a good thing, as it was draining my budget.

I am looking into some all natural products to take to help the healing process. Hubby is going to be taking some of the stuff as well, to help with his shoulder. We are quite a pair, with our "old age" inuries.. LOL

Arm update

Photobucket

This is what I get to wear for the next 4 weeks or so. I do have to admit it has helped with the pain in my arm, but the minute I took it off, to wash dishes boy oh boy did it start hurting. I am so hoping that this therapy works, as I don't really want to go the surgery route.

I asked the therapist about working out, and she said it would be kind of difficult. I could try, but to not over do it. So this means I need to start looking at the different diet supplement reviews and diet recipes to help me lose weight. I had a pop today for the first time in 15 days, and it tasted terrible. Only had a few sips, and dumped it out.

Maybe tonight I can get a good night's sleep, without the fear of my hubby rolling over on my arm!
