The bump is back

dammit — Valerie on July 12, 2008 at 7:55 am

Remember back in February when I voluntarily had a giant needle stuck in my wrist to get rid of that bump? And then it went away and everything was fine?

It’s not fine anymore.

I can’t see the bump yet, but I know it’s coming. How do I know?  I can’t bend my wrist back farther than about 15 degrees.

There’s no way I’m going to deal with surgery right now, so I guess once it makes its appearance, I’ll get the bastard taken care of again. Because as of right now, lifting anything over 2 pounds hurts like holy hell.

  1. Hi Valerie~ Google Reader recommended your site to me a few days ago, probably because I also live near Richmond. And I probably wouldn’t comment typically since I’m SO obviously in a different age/life place.
    BUT! I had to, because ten years ago when I was pregnant with my little boy I also had that stupid bump on my wrist. I never showed it to my OB because I thought it had nothing to do with my pregnancy. But three weeks before I was supposed to deliver, I was in the doctor’s office (Doesn’t it feel like you are there ALL the time?) and I didn’t want to go to my family doc for the wrist, so I mentioned it to him. I asked him what I could do for it because it had gotten to the point where I couldn’t turn the ignition in my car. Shockingly, he told me it was the baby. That the swelling would go down after the baby was delivered. And it did!
    I don’t know if your bump was the same as my bump, but let your OB take a peek at it.
    Nice to ‘meet’ you!
