I'm really struggling with work right now. My wrists, hands, forearms are do painful that I'm not being very productive. On Monday I'm going to ask my boss to refer me to occupational health. I've not done this sooner because she's been on annual leave. Typing is horrific and clicking the mouse sends shooting pains up my forearm. I really don't know what to do. I'm scared to take time off because my work have a strict absence policy. I'm scared that I'm doing more damage to my hands because its getting worse.
On the iPad it's ok because I can either move my entire arm so now putting too much strain on hands and wrists. At home I do have the luxury of taking as long as I want to type.

I wrote the above yesterday, I meant to come back to finish but it didn't happen. Once my bug was in bed I was mostly just chilling watching Castle.
This morning I have much more pain up my forearms.
I was hoping I would have at least heard back about physio by now. I know it's only been 11 days but I'm so fed up.
Maybe it's coincidental since carpal tunnel is progressive but I feel so much worse since Monday when the doctor was pressing down on my wrists. I understand they need to examine me but ouch.
I feel like I'm whining.
Hope you hear from physio soon, hope it goes well with asking your boss too, big hugs! Xx
