aww I'm sorry to hear that @delishtreats, and as much as I understand your want to learn left-handed typing and retain your spot here, your doctor is right! Take as much of a break as needed; I'll be awaiting your full recovery and return :)

Thank you Lynn! The thing is that my arm was paralyzed for a month. I couldn't brush my teeth, comb my hair and my husband had to help me to get dressed. I couldn't move it at all. I had to take sleeping pills because I was not able to sleep due to the pain.

I had multiple scans and had to see several doctors as they were afraid it would never completely heal. At the end they told me that it will take at least one year to get to normal. I was very frustrated but didn't give up. This was in April. I went through many therapies and was feeling much better. My doctor told me a couple of weeks ago he was surprised that it was healing so well. I've seen his this week too and he was not that happy anymore. It hurts again and I have to slow down..

Actually I was left handed but I was forced to do everything with my right hand when I was a child. At that time it was not 'normal' to be left handed. I think it should not be that difficult for me to type with the left hand but I'll see how it goes. When I couldn't do anything with my right hand a few months ago I even learned to chop the onion with my left :D I couldn't give up cooking!! :D

Thank you for your support!

ahhh the days of treating lefties like lepers! I am sorry to hear your healing has backtracked though, but the fact that you can chop onions with your left hand leaves me feeling very hopeful for you :)
