avevale_intelligencerI have what it seems is called a ganglion on the lower knuckle of the middle finger of my left hand. I thought I had ganglia all through my body, but this one is on the outside, which is not good. If I hit it on anything, I get a technicolour voyage into pain lasting about five minutes real time. I've learned not to hit it on anything.
The first time I noticed it (boy did I notice) it was about the size of one of those ball bearings people put on cakes. I took it to a doctor, who said it was too small to do anything about. It is now much bigger (about peanut size), and Dr Beale now says something can be done. So that's good, I think.
I'm also getting re-referred to the mental health person I was seeing last year; brain fog meant I missed a couple of appointments, and so I dropped off her list. So that's also good.
Otherwise, still jobless, still aching, still mostly depressed, and still not writing. Not so good.
