Injury at work caused me to lose weight. I was overweight by 50 lbs. For years I had tried to diet and exercise with coworkers and family to no avail. However this injury came and completely turned my life upside down. The stress of the injury helped me to lose 40 lbs in a 6 month period. I went from 150 pound, 5 ft 1 woman, to a 114 pound depressed person with deformed looking arms. I managed to keep off the weight for 2 years but was recently put on a multitude of medications and gained 20 pounds in 2 months.
I have since stopped taking the meds and am on a mission to get healthy again. I have had to adjust to using my computer with voice command only, and am getting the hang of it. Not gonna lie, its tough not having the normal use of your hands but I am hanging in there. I used to be right handed but my left has taken over, my right hand is a helper hand now, unable to push weight only able to be a guide for my left hand. Thumb is useless! My index finger is my new thumb. When I first had the surgery, I did notice my thumb was numb and not moving, but I thought it was normal and assumed it was still under the anesthesia. Palm side of the hand looks dented on the thumb side.
Carpal Tunnel Surgery failed. Now my right arm is always pained and I cant manipulate items with my fingers or have the range of motion in my wrist like I used to have or even prior to surgery. Ulnar nerve entrapment at cubital level is so painful. I can't even brush my hair or teeth with my right arm anymore. Sadly both my arms are affected, but I will not have the CTS on my left hand after the failed right hand. So NO Working out with my arms...
My Guiding light has been my love of Christ Jesus! He has sustained me in the midst of my depression. Its a sad thing to become dependent on others, and see how much you disrupt their lives.
I trudge on though. focusing on my recovery. And trying to get a handle on my weight! :)
