sigh. well, it seems like my little healing victory was very short lived. looks like i'm back to being in pain again.
but it's also really weird. it's been jumping all over the different joints in my finger. back in january/february, i was feeling most of my pain in the top joint, which the doctor said was being caused by the arthritis i mentioned. around april or may, that pain migrated to the bottom joint (this one may be possible due to my own fuckery
). and now, for some reason, it's mostly on the middle joint. it's also weird because i can still do certain things that i wasn't able to do before the cortisone shot, like the rubber band stretches.
but either way, looks like i gotta pay another trip to the doctor. it sucks cause despite all the corona bullshit, i was legitimately the happiest i've been in nearly 2 years
