I am having a real problem at the moment, it is not related I do not think, to my Disability, PSA.

My right hand arm seems to be getting weaker and weaker and I am having problems lifting any form of weight, like a cup of tea or even a newspaper. I have my usual disability condition still. The problem is my right arm does get bad with chronic pain, this is something different and I cannot relate to this problem I have developed. It is also effecting my Hands, fingers and elbow, where it feels like a tendon is stuck down my thumb.

Tuesday I see my GP, it has been a two week wait, and sad to say I understand why it takes so long to get seen

I am trying to control my pain with Opiates, Tramadol . Also my V-Tens the latter only works for a short period of time and I have to be careful as I get TENS Burns

Hopefully back soon
