4 doctor appointments, including the left/right C4-C7 RFAs this month. So far I'm usually in extra amounts of pain for about a week after every RFA, I imagine it will continue this time. Two weeks after I start feeling better with pain levels dropping. Since the vast majority of my pain is radiating from this spot, no idea how much extra pain or how much it will drop once they're through burning those nerves out.
My hope is that I'll be able to sit in chair and type for 8 hours a day afterwards. Being able to go for a morning walk and use a video game controller and not having to wear wrists braces 24/7 would be nice added bonuses, but I really just want my typing to be painless again. Or at least a lot better than it is now. So, that's the hope.
I have started the FM6 readthrough. Got through 5 sessions in 2 days and I already want to die (22 left to go). 104 notations already. Pfft. Already noticed a couple things I'll need to add to Seismic Semester, imagine there will be more.
So that's me for the next month.
Totally recommend playing Tactical Breach Wizards if you like puzzle/tactical games btw. It's not like XCom where you have percentages and every encounter is long and grindy. Is much more like a puzzle game since every skill hits and you're expected to clear rooms in two turns max (very few go longer if you're doing things right). Good characters and fun urban fantasy story too.
10/5 Update: Well, they timed the RFA just right, because the one they did last November is starting to wear off and I'm struggling. Can't work but ever other day, even editing instead of straight up writing. Have managed to get 11 chapters down, with 16 left to go. 196 notations. Eek! That's where most of the pain comes from, handwriting everything down. Here's hoping handwriting detection AI gets better over the next 5 years so I can more easily digitize everything in the future.
Was reading the Learning Council powwow chapter today, where Moira Welf gets her first real introduction. Funny to think she wasn't really around for so many books, since she's so important later in the novel and especially going forward. As I've said before, Vicky is the POV character of her novel, but Moira is the driving force.
