      Drink a bit more water than usual and massage some pressure points on your hands and feet.

      Stepping outside to breathe in the outdoor air also helps. A short walk if you can is also good.

              Looks like it’s my turn for misery … I’m middle aged and suffering from the first early signs of rheumatoid arthritis … I felt a tiny tinge of pain when I chatted with you last … now my arms feel like this

              We all seem to live in a world of pain … it’s just a matter of when, where and how we will be affected by it

              Growing old sucks

                  I can’t work physically or even mentally right now because of the pain … seated at my desk with very comfortable arm rests to stabilize my arms is the only position I can manage right now … on the bright side, sitting still is making my go through a marathon watch of Star Trek: Discovery … I was only up to five episodes … now I’m almost finished season one … my spore drive has broken down but hopefully, I’ll make it back to my normal universe again soon. Your sympathy is much appreciated … stay well my friend.

                    I hope you have a good Rheumatologist to help you through it. I tried dealing with my migraines along for 2 decades. Finally seeing a specialist did wonders. I’m glad you have a small amount of distraction in the mean time.

                    … stay well as well.
