  1. i hope we will hear of similar experiments/inventions coming out of Geek House. i’m back to one-finger, left-handed typing AND my right arm is slinged up, in excruciating pain and reducing my productivity to marginal levels. i feel retarded.

  2. Deb, Sorry you’re feeling retarded. Strange how pain does that to you. And how you feel as though you don’t own your body. And how productivity plummets. I would have thought myself that having the excuse – no, reason, to eliminate most social obligations for the duration, I would have been able to accomplish wonders with my various projects when in fact – NOTHING. Down with pain, I say! Of all kinds. Does Toredol work for you? It’s neat stuff, and not addictive.

    Allegra, I concur with Deb’s comment about inventiveness in Geek House! Your readers will have great expectations.

  3. good to know it’s not just me! Nautilus3, i am still waiting to see the doctor — the GP, not the specialist — to get a prescription. meanwhile, i’m using Jim’s 750 mg Advil from when he had dental work done. they help reduce the pain enough to get SOME sleep.

  4. At every opportunity – like dental work – we get prescription analgesics, the strongest they will provide. We rarely use them for the prescribed purpose but they are always there when genuine need arises. Being unable to sleep due to pain is genuine need, and shouldn’t have to wait for a MD appointment to get treated.
