The one armed man

I've been reviewing older posts, thinking about what changes I've had in my symptoms. I no longer attempt to type very much with my right hand, I do most of my typing left-handed. I have also switched hands for eating, and again - mostly use my left hand.

My right foot has been more troublesome, and quite often stiffens up while I'm sitting so that I need to stretch it before I try to get up.

Reading the old posts, I was surprised at how long some symptoms have been around. I'm dictating this post rather than typing. I haven't spent much time dictating, and I need to get better at it.

Today is my birthday, and I'm going to barbecue steaks for dinner. That's always been a more left-handed job for me anyway, so I don't think I'll notice any differences.

I need to be more disciplined with exercise, and start biking regularly again. I'm eager to experience some of the symptom relief benefits that exercise gives me.
