i really am never taking up sports...
had confirmation today - my golfer's elbow has mutated into tennis elbow.
woke up this morning, and after merely an hour of being awake (in which all i'd done was eat an apple and review an article i'm editing - reading a printed copy, no computer involved) my elbow was excruciatingly painful.
tears followed, as did anti-inflammatory gel and painkillers. in the end i made an appointment for the afternoon at the chiropractor's. she massaged the affected area (owwwwwwwwwwww) and suggested ways of dealing with it (like, never ever typing again. oops).
obviously, i can't knit for a good while now. it is possible i'll have to figure out how to knit continental in order to take it up again. the saga continues.
i'm not sure what i'm more amazed by. that i bruise so easily from soft-tissue massages, or that i paid £30 for my chiropractor to do this:
