Angry I'm Dropping Everything!

So my right hand and arm has been numb for a couple of years now. It's got that "sandy" feeling and feels like I'm wearing a rubber glove all the time.

Recently, though, my arm and hand has gotten noticeably weaker and I'm having a hard time holding onto things. They almost feel slick. I've dropped so many things lately I almost go ahead and drop them as soon as I pick them up just to get it over with!

I especially notice it when I'm doing something that requires repetitive motion with my right hand.....like drying my hair or putting on makeup. Typing is hard, too. Forget about writing legibly. It looks the same whether I use my right or left hand. And my penmanship used to be my "thing". I love neat writing. Oh, well.......

I know it's just par for the course. I'm not freaking out about it or anything. It's just so frustrating and I'm so tired of dropping stuff. Guess I'm just venting. Thanks for listening.
