You may be wondering why I am not posting new content. I believe I injured my right arm while pruning trees. The type of injury is RSI (repetitive stress/strain injury) and the electric saw made my muscle in my right arm very sore. It is painful lifting anything and because I am right handed any amount of time on a mouse and keyboard makes it worse.

I’ll go see my doctor this coming week and get a scan but I suspect he’ll tell me to immobilise it for it to heal. We’ll see.

So I am taking a forced break from being a keyboard warrior. Sorry about that. But there are over 1,300 posts on Bible Science Forum. Plenty to get up to speed on.

I hope to be back at it soon. Please pray for my healing.

PS:

19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivers him out of them all.

Psalm 34:19 AKJV

Update 12/05/2026: An ultrasound scan showed a swollen tendon in my shoulder causing bursitis. Apparently a doctor can give an injection of a steroid to reduce inflammation and swelling and hence pain. I haven’t see my doctor yet, not since the scan. But will soon.

But it explains the pain and aches down my right arm and affects typing and use of a mouse.

But no torn tendons, so no surgery required. I’ve already ordered a shoulder brace that might help.

But I hope to be back writing very soon.

Update 22/05/2026: On the 20th May I received a corticosteroid injection into my shoulder. Apparently it takes around 3 days to start getting improvement and pain reduction from that. So I am now waiting. Also I am taking it slow on writing as typing causes my right arm to ache. But I hope that will improve over time.
