catsidheMuch better now. Thanks for the messages of support.
I'm now at about 90-95% for my right hand, and 85-90% for the left. Instantaneous strength almost back to normal, but almost instant fatigue. Still slightly clumsy, with fine control still an issue. I can write, but not normally. I can type, but not at full speed, and it starts to hurt quickly. But, and this is the good bit, over the last couple of days I could feel my hands recovering. I would try to do something and fail, and try it again half an hour later and succeed. I could notice the pain fading from my forearms.
I still haven't been able to get through to the doctor. I am comforted that if the pathology had found anything really nasty, she would have let me know. As it is, it may go down to Tarlaíonn cac, unless it happens again.
I hope it doesn't happen again.
