Sorry I’m so late to this, my usual arm problems. Thank you for the birthday wishes! This is getting old hasn’t been any fun actually. But I suppose it’s better than the alternative as they say.

I finally decided to spend some money and I went to have an arm massage. Fantastic! It may not be a cure but it will be a preventative measure in the future, I am sure! And I start physical therapy on Monday. So keep your fingers crossed for me! Im trying to avoid surgery at all costs. Although cubital tunnel surgery has a great success rate, with all my other problems I am sure to have complications out of the norm.

I know when you aren’t around that you are having a hard time with your arms.

Glad you got a little relief from your massage.

Praying that physical therapy is the ticket you need.

Hi, Cottonball!

I can’t tell you how much deep tissue massage has helped me, for many years, to keep going and to avoid other medical treatments.

Without it I’d be in constant pain.

I have one of these massagers and it also helps a lot:

You can find them for about $35.

Glad to hear the arm massage gave you some relief.

I did something to my hand (no where near the issue you are having with your arm), when I was just squeezing out a wet towel. Ugh!!

Hope the massages continue to help your arms.
