Its been a while since I gave everyone an update on the old RSI. I am still suffering from various symptoms, I think I always will have that background discomfort. I have though improved enough to get myself a Samsung netbook which I find more comfortable to type upon than my desktop keyboard for blogging [...]

Dodgy Brain

This week I’ve been in a little better head space, up until about Friday when I started to have significant problems with my short term memory again. This is probably fatigue again. Its the end of the week and I am always a zombie. As I previously mentioned I do find it difficult to concentrate [...]
RSI 2009
Posted in RSI, tagged Pain, RSI, rsi recovery, tiredness, Work on April 27, 2009 | 11 Comments »
I have still not recovered from RSI, I get numerous flare-ups at completely random intervals. I sometimes think what else have I got to do. I steadily modify my own treatments, increasing and decreasing supplements, exercises of differing types and sleep patterns. Still, when it comes down to it I can’t say that I am [...]
RSI Update

I have to say that I do still suffer from repetitive strain type symptoms though its not an every day occurrence. I’m still doing daily exercises, taking my supplements and resting more. I have to rigidly stick to not using the computer more than 30 hours per week, which in some way has been good [...]
Recovery Lessons
Posted in RSI, tagged lessons, recovery, RSI, rsi recovery, two steps back on January 20, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I think one of the most difficult lessons to learn during recovery is to pace yourself. Sometimes you feel like you are getting REALLY better and almost feeling normal again, and so then you slip back into old routines and those bad habits that injured you in the first place – This happens to me [...]
RSI Started, when?

I had a comment on a post the other day asking me how long I’ve had RSI. That made me think as since I’ve never had it formally confirmed because I my GP is more interested in trying out visualisation exercises rather than referring me to the most usful place; Rheumatology would be a start! [...]

Its been a while since I have posted here and to be frank I set the blog to automatically allow sensible comments as I’ve just not wanted to keep dwelling so much on my condition. Blogging I think was an important function in my recovery or at least it helped me at the realisation stage. [...]
Is Food related to RSI?
Posted in RSI, tagged Banana, Diet, food, RSI on October 1, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I think a really important aspect of my repetitive strain injury has been the daily issues I have been getting from my spine. The pain appears to be mostly the upper part of the spine, but at times I am getting problems in the lower part which is more notice-able as its different. The lower [...]
Back Work – Weights

I have been working allot on my posture lately and I think I am starting to see some results. I still get many symptoms associated with carpel tunnel, even though it isn’t that but there was been some improvement in the terms I am able to type a bit and use voice recognition allot less. [...]
Typical day with RSI
Posted in RSI, tagged RSI, Typical day on September 9, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I came across a very interesting post another blog called Ergomatters written by a fellow RSI suffer that describes the typical day of a person working regular hours under normal stressful conditions in the UK. I find it shocking that the employers in the UK are effectively hurting their employees in such a manner with [...]
