Friends.. I ask if you could please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. As some of you know, I have some health issues causing my disability. My health has been doing actually very well with my weight loss over the past year. The weight loss has helped tremedously with many of my underlying issues. However, the part it doesn't cure, (but does help with), is my arthritis, and nerve damage in my back, neck and leg. There has been some issues showing up with my right arm. Come to find out, it isn't a problem with my arm, but stems from my back and neck issues. It has been causing huge pain in my right arm and shoulder, and tingling and some paralisis in my arm and hand. Lately, I have not been able to play guitar, or the uke, and have had limited use of my right hand. My doctor is concerned, and I have some tests and MRIs I need to go through to find out if there is anything they can do about it, if it is permanant, if it could get worse as time goes, or better. My Doctor tells me to keep using it to the best of my ability, because using it can only do good things for a problem like this. I have always been an optimist, but I can't lie and say that it doesn't worry me. Simply because of music, and myself always doing things with my hands. It would drive me nuts not to be able to work with my hands, so yeah, I'm a little scared.. For the time being, my fingers wont do what I want them to do playing, but dammit, Im gonna keep playing as best as I can..
