it does. and it breaks my heart.
I am on strict orders from my hand therapist. I am allowed only short spells to play it.
as you may know I am recovering from tendonitus from pushing a snow stuck vehicle.
it has been nearly three months . kind of freaky.
the good thing is that no serious tear or anything like that . I have been getting physical therapy and it has been working. I now have exercises where I hold my hand a certain way and work a tiny tiny weight. it's hard. PTK understands.
I am just dying to play guitar again. so bad that I relapsed and did. I had to pay for it with three days of soreness.
bad me. mea culpa. ya ya. I rocked . and I loved it!

"i don't want your sympathy; that ain't me" as I sang in my song.
I just want you all to love your guitars. the next time you play them
play them with appreciation and wonder.
they'll cry from happiness then.

I just told my guitars that I love them. I think the old Lady is jealous though :wink:

Man, I hate to hear that. I hope it gets better really soon. Any word on how long you're down for?

No good deed goes unpunished eh?
Stick to your therapy, and this too shall pass.

One more reason I hate this f@8ing snow! You take care of that so you can get back to playing guitar ASAP! :cry:

thanks dogs and cat. no prognosis for cure time. . it is a slow process. it is also a process of building strength to the little muscles around the ones I wrecked. then it is less likely to re occur.
good thing I have my little uke. no strain playing that.
