Cranial rocks!

I'm now a great fan of cranial osteopathy!

After my session yesterday I felt very sleepy and had a burning sensation down my right arm - this morning I could raise that arm above shoulder height for the first time in 6 weeks! The swelling in that hand has also gone down - so much so that I've been knitting! I'm now on Row 72

The Dr has advised a further 2 weeks of rest so I plan to pace myself and the projects. Hopefully you'll see some progress soon.

Thanks to everyone for being so supportive, I normally spend my days surrounded by over 100 people and have been slowly climbing the walls at home without being able to knit so your comments and emails have meant a lot.

My will power left home and I have a few minor purchases on their way - mainly more patterns in the hope of some inspiration on how to use this stash.

To Pally (SP7) - I really am very easy to please, I just like getting surprises, I get sappy over home made gifts, love gadgets and am a total pattern junkie!

How about a swap?
You lend me your voice, and I'll lend you my hands.
I'm glad to hear that there is some improvement now.

Glad to hear your treatment was a success, hope you keep well enough to continue knitting during your time off work. Take care.

I'm glad the cranial osteopathy was so good! And you got another two weeks off work!
I really enjoyed meeting you again last week & am now planning on making some Mrs Beeton wristwarmers for myself!

Very glad to hear you have another two weeks resting - and all the better if you can knit, it will stop you buying things on the internet - possibly - are you going back to the cranial osteopath?

Yvonne, I'm so pleased that the cranial osteopathy has had such a good result, long may it continue.

I think that you deserve a few little purchases, just think of it as a celebration. And a girl can never have too many patterns. :)

I am so glad you are on the mend! Now take it carefully and don't go mad on any knitting you can do! Hugs, J
