Just a little raw catch up to share what's been going on with me, where I am on my health journey, and how things are unfolding.
Here's the cliff notes incase you prefer:
My arm pain is getting worse and is much worse with use so that's what's been pushing this major slow down. There's some message here, or meaning, about needing to change my movements.
Still not sure exactly what is wrong but I have my suspicion that its a compressed nerve/vein/artery issue stemming from my shoulder (thoracic outlet syndrome). I'm waiting for a referral for a Neurologist and am very much looking forward to understanding what is going on.
This is really tough because it hurts very much, like pinched nerves down my arm and into my hand and a feeling of weakness, and is aggravated by holding my arms out and/or up, and repetitive movements. (As in, how I make video sessions presently.) It is not an ER level of pain. Tho it gets very intense and sharp and I find the need to ice my arm and palm.
My biggest pain* tho comes from the realization that I need to change the way I create. And at least for the time being, I need to adapt my movements in sessions.
My burnout is doing ok. I'm eating much better and taking care of myself physically. :) So at this point my greatest issue is the arm pain and whatever is going on with my nerves/veins.
I can't thank you enough for helping me in this time of need, and all the times along the way. I thank the universe every day for this community.
While I can deny I'm sad and scared I remain grateful as I know this is somehow pushing me to discover new ways I can serve and create.
I love you so much.
With much warmth and deepest of thanks,
Jillian
