iSurvived

Contrary to what I thought, I actually had a great Christmas.
I suffered for about two days due to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome from I guess, too much surfing online, and the fact that the room was freezing. I fell asleep on my two hands under my body.
My right hand—the blogging hand—was excruciating. First I tried sticking Kool Fever strips on them.



It didn't help that much. Alaxan helped. What didn't help: home massage. The masseuse actually made the pain worse.
It was hell trying to wrap presents or even write names on the gift tags. Hell to open my wallet, hell to shampoo, hell everything.
Then I found this wrist brace at Mercury Drug and wow, I was pain-free.



I wore this overnight and the next morning I could wiggle my fingers without pain. I took the brace off, did some hand exercise and now I'm completely OK. Thank God for this contraption. My sons were quite fascinated by it.
I really had the best gifts and a most wonderful Christmas. Oh and I'm wearing the Margiela hair scarf I wanted.
Merry Christmas to you all.
