Years ago my wrist was really bothering me and I talked to my Dr. and it was agitated from carrying my heavy babies all the time and he had me get a brace to support it and strengthen it.

FFWD – January 2019 – I fell and caught myself on that hand. My arm started aching at Pickleball. It got a little tender at basketball scrimmages. When I shoveled a foot of snow it flared up again… Then went I went to old lady basketball one of the ladies was “passing” as hard as possible until it jammed me in the right spot and I had to quit.

I’ve been babying it for a week since that. I’ve worn the brace most of the day and I haven’t gone to play any sports and I even let Ben shovel both mornings that it snowed.

FFWD – March 2019 – I’m back to playing pickleball and basketball. Not wearing a brace. But It still hurts if I chop vegetables, pick up and carry children, or other similar activities. I’m hoping it will slowly get back to normal and not be a factor.

Side Note – Ben has Tennis Elbow. His elbow flares up every time he plays or lifts :(, so we are a pretty pathetic pair after pickleball games.
