Thank you for all the well wishes and commisseration everyone . I do know that it's repetitive stress related, I spend A LOT of time on the computer between work, the board, and writing my family/friends. Last time I used rest, ice, and weights/stretching exercises the way I was shown in physical therapy, and it did clear up. Will do the same again. I do have a good chair and ergonomic keyboard, but I know as the day goes on I slouch more in my chair, and I haven't been doing my stretches

Ok I'm going! I know I should cut out the typing. It's hard.. for me it's like not talking!
