Hi Ian - I think you overdid it because you felt so well - I do the same. You have to rest up as much as you can now. Take Vit D and B12 if you don't already, rub Olbas Oil into your hands or Deep Freeze (no smell). It loosens mine- but wait for the pain to pass before working! Glad you got out and enjoyed yourself. You have to or this illness wins!

Good luck and be well. Cas
