I had fallen into a sort of cycle of pain, more of a spiral, like the one water makes as it's draining. I'm trying to break it, so I'm doing things a little differently this time.
I'm near the bottom of the cycle, so that means almost constant pain, but it usually results in my starting to favor my left arm even more, which results in more pain to my right arm and back, etc. This time, I'm not babying the left arm. I'm forcing it to remain on the steering wheel or the handle of the grocery cart when I would usually let it hang.
The result is not the miraculous one I was dreaming about. I'm still in pain, and I'm still unconsciously favoring it (I can tell because the tendons in my right arm are outlined in fire, and I keep thinking someone's stabbing me in the back [wouldn't be a total shock at my RetailEstablishment]).
Maybe I'll treat it "normally" for another couple of days, but I'm not sure if I can. Strike that idea from the list.
Anyone have any suggestions for strategies of how to outsmart my neurological problems?
