Minor update - I've got back into the habit of trying to use my left hand a bit more - injections are OK, but I have to do it slowly............... One thing I found today that was impossible for me to do - open a tin of corned beef using only one hand! I managed eventually, having to use my right hand ( yes, it was painful ) - no more tins of corned beef for me at the moment!
InBox Reviews - it's keeping me occupied, and I'm going to try to do one a day - it's frustrating, though, handling all that plastic & being unable to do anything with it!!

Very sorry to hear this, Dave. My best wishes for a speedy recovery.
I have been lucky enough to spend my whole life earning a living with my hands, and the loss of their use is my biggest fear in life . I wish I could afford to retire to make a start on all my ambitious projects.
I can't imagine the pain but I certainly can imagine the frustration.
All the best
Neil

Dave, I hope you'll feel better and be back to your bench and everyday activities soon. :thumb2:
I really appreciate your constant updates about new models and your InBox reviews but nothing compares to direct plastic handling.
sorry to hear about the flare up, and the resultant lack of bench time. Hopefully it will not last long.
in the 70's a cousin of mine had to start injecting insulin, he had to have a quiet word with his son (about 6 or 7 at the time) who told his teacher "my dad's a junkie"!
Update - the pain has just about gone, but my hand is still stiff - I almost have to make a conscious effort to bend my fingers, but a lot better than a few days ago. I'm going to to leave the bench alone for a few more days, then maybe a little light work to start with. Just in time to compensate for the avalanche of Christmas drivel appearing on Tv, that starts earlier and earlier each year!
Dave
