Complaining? Me?

I slept poorly last night due to increasingly painful carpal tunnel. Normally, even if there is pain at night, it subsides during the day to a great degree. This morning however was almost unbearable. I called The Doctor to see what I could take - Tylenol. I don't even own a bottle of Tylenol. The Doctor also mentioned the possibility of meeting with an orthopedist. This is not appealing since I come from two generations of chiropractors and I blame them for my aversion towards internal medicine. Besides, they're not going to want to cut me open or shoot me up with cortisone while I am pregnant. So, I figured that I'd give my chiropractor a try.

I see my chiropractor about once a year with a stiff neck. He fixes it and I'm good for another year. To make a long story short, there's not much he can do. He adjusted my hand, showed me a massage that my husband should perform and had me dip my hands in a vat of paraffin. Relief was temporary but my hands are REALLY soft.

So, what's a girl to do? B6 is rumored to help so I will be more diligent about taking my prenatal vitamins, I'll continue my attempts to consume 72oz. of water during work and I'll start icing my wrists once I get home.

Until this thing subsides, The Husband might have to start cutting my meat for me at dinnertime. It's good practice for him anyway.
