I'm old as dirt and have been extremely lucky when it comes to health issues. Lo......now I have a problem I can't ignore and I'm try to self diagnose since I don't have time or the inclination to go to "the Doctor".
Care to input??
All of a sudden I have problems with my hand. Actually it is from my finger tips to my elbow (not up to the shoulder). I have "waves" of discomfort. Some days this week I can't turn the key in the ignition with-o
real discomfort. The other night I was in pain...the kind that makes you
make noise and the family comes to see what's wrong. I go for many hours totally normal.
I am assuming it may be arthritis..but in waves?? It could be carpal tunnel...but in waves??? I am assuming it is not my heart because it is not traveling above my elbow.
I am popping an aspirin (just in case it's heart..lol) and I am taking Advil
which seems to do the job. In lieu of either, if it hits in the evening, I have a Cutty.
What do you think, family????????? DDD
