I think we should rename MS to "Murphy's Disease". It always seems to rear it's ugly head at just the wrong time.

Just like Murphy's Law......with MS if it's gonna show itself it's gonna wait till the worst possible moment!

Well, this time I was needlessly blaming the MS Trolls for this particular bit of numbness. (tendinitis in two places in my elbow)

But, because of the MS, I was assuming it was the MS Trolls causing the hand numbness, so I was pretty much ignoring the pain and putting up with the numbness till someone here said something about ulnar nerve entrapment and my aunt also said I should get it checked out just in case...

So, the MS is to blame for me ignoring it...

I really hate the MS....and I'm not really enjoying the tendinitis much either. Plus, there's not much I can do except for RICEing my arm (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) and taking ibuprofen. (altho, I'm not doing the compression part of the RICE)

This sucks. I wanna crochet! (doing stuff with yarn is what keeps me from stabbing people who annoy me in the eyes with pointy knitting needles and crochet hooks.)

I looked up tennis elbow, and it could take up to 6 weeks for this to heal (or it could need surgery to heal...great. I'm. so. thrilled...not)

It might not be numbness caused by MS, but it's still numbness, and it's still just as freaking annoying as numbness caused by MS.

I cushioned my computer chair a little better by wrapping several layers of polar fleece around the arm rests to try to soften up and add more padding. I just cant find a position to put my arm in that's comfortable now.
