I forgot to make a post after my appointment on Monday so here I am doing it rather delayed šŸ˜…

I was pretty nervous going in as I havenā€™t really left my house apart from walks within the vicinity of my house and felt an attack coming on but it disappeared once the physio therapist came in.

I told him about my wrists and about my elbow (two people were carrying me by my ankles and wrists as a joke and the person carrying me by my wrists dropped me and my elbow hit the wood floorboards really hard).

He told me that he doesnā€™t think I have Carpal Tunnel (phew!) but rather itā€™s my wrists screaming in pain from doing repetitive tasks often because as he put it ā€œhumans arenā€™t made to be doing things repetitively so it starts to take a toll after a whileā€ whether thatā€™s true or not doesnā€™t matter, heā€™s the professional Iā€™m not.

As for my elbow he does think that thereā€™s something going on but most likely due to my neck/back (weā€™re going to test those next Monday). He also told me that I have ā€œTennis Elbowā€ itā€™s apparently very common and again due to doing things repetitively.

So he gave me some easy exercises to do in the mean time and I have another appointment on the 1st but to exam my neck and back (as Iā€™ve mentioned already) to see if itā€™s the main cause for my overall pain.

It took several years but I finally got some much needed answers. šŸ˜Š

Hope everyoneā€™s been doing well šŸ¤—šŸ–¤
