I've been recently diagnosed with this thing called Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and its cause is from putting strain on the wrists causing a pinch nerve or something so...in laymen's terms its from typing...yes I know I'm typing this, but I'm using 1 hand ;)...anyways, here's the real description from the net.....Carpal tunnel syndrome is pressure on the median nerve -- the nerve in the wrist that supplies feeling and movement to parts of the hand. It can lead to numbness, tingling, weakness, or muscle damage in the hand and fingers (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth).
So I have it in both hands but the left hand is worse...sooooo glad I'm right handed :)....its unbelievable however because something as light as the telephone receiver can drop out of my hands....almost did today too while I was taking a call....to me there isn't much pain but more a constant discomfort -- the numbness, tingling and weakness -- every once in a while I feel a sharp pain and I find I have to take pain killers, strong ones, to relief the pain but they don't always work....today is just one of those days it didn't work....I have to get myself 2 braces to see if that will help...how ugly it would be to walk around with 2 braces :( also have to get those balls to exercise my hands..the left hand needs a soft or extra soft (thats how bad it is) and the right a medium.
Sooooo the million $$$ question...How am I gonna get out of this mess?????.....Answer: I don't know...for crying out loud, the economy is bad, jobs are hard to find, and guess what I'm receptionist and typist at my job...you saw correct...I'm the Typist *smh*....

Life without a Blackberry
So my bb decides its gonna give an error msg....and until today I've never realised how convenient a bb can be....I wasn't able to make a call, send a text to my boss, nor, most importantly, bb my friends :( ... to add fuel to the fire my port has a shortage...so the guy cannot finish my phone tonight (I don't know how to do the angry face)...I hardly use the net like one time anyways soo the internet doesn't fill that empty space and fb surely doesn't either...fb can be soo boring I don't know how some people stay on it all day, but that's a topic for another day...but I honestly wouldn't say I'm a bb junkie...because I am only now feeling the withdrawal symptoms and my phone was gone since last night...24 hours and counting :D....yeaaa but the convenience of these smart phones not only bb but all of them..they make life sooo much easier and this fact is not realised until one has to go a day or, even less, couple hours without it.
