My left wrist hurts! Most likely carpal tunnel since it’s a side effect of my medication. I used to think carpal tunnel was a hereditary issue after watching who got it and who didn’t and doing multiple ergonomic assessments. This has been an awful learning experience as far as how badly it hurts and the movements you thought you could make and what makes you want to jump out of your skin!

The side effects of being so irritated and angry already had me down to taking this exmestane (sp?) only once or twice a week even though my oncologist wants me to take it daily and then you add on this awful carpal tunnel! 

From what I’ve read, lymphedema sometimes presents after a flight or two and I’m wondering if our trip to Disney brought it out. From what my PT says, it’s nearly impossible to track and determine. It may be coincidental every time or it may be a real thing.

All I know is it really showed up after our trip. I’m wearing the neighbor’s wedding ring instead of my own (her husband passed in October and she passed a couple of weeks ago) because I’m so swollen. The wrist pain has become unbearable. 

I’m now wearing a wrist brace and hoping it holds all of the pain for my kids rushing me while doing the “bye bye” exercises that I equate to *NSYNC 😂
