Ye Olde Carpal Tunnel

Being that Matt is the most prolific person I know most of our readers don't care that I am not posting much. Much of reluctance has been because of a hand/wrist pain that makes it hard to type. My 2 months of excruciating pain turns out to be carpal tunnel.

I usually mock people that say they have fake ailments like carpal tunnel, but man, it really sucks and is totally painful. So, light posting and no epics for a few more weeks.

I *really* feel old.

Dave: Too bad Clinton still isn't president - didn't he have government programs designed to help sufferers like you? I think MuleSource should add "hand massage" to its list of treatments covered by your health insurance. :-)

Seriously, carpal tunnel bites. What do you do to fix something like that?

Hand massage and car detailing since my new car (less than 2 months old) has now been hit twice.

Not much you can do for the carpal tunnel. Basically you have to lay off the hand and give it a lot of rest. And you can wear a wacky brace thing during down time. Sigh. I am old.
