Saw the doc on Tuesday. He feels I'm coming along good, but understands my pain. He said the nerve is bruised and until it quiets down that I will be uncomfortable. Yesterday was one of my better days. I was on the computer for about a half hour, worked on a friends manuscript and finished it. Today I'm stiff and sore again so have had mostly a down day. However, I'm beginning to see some light at the end of the tunnel so it looks like I'm going to live.
