How many other idiots are there like me... Thu, 12 October 2017 11:32 Go to next message

...who often sleep with their hands interlaced above their head so that when they wake in the morning it feels as through someone has driven nails into their shoulders?!

Please tell me I'm not alone...

Hi Derek,

I feel your pain! Once in my early 20s, I fell asleep with one arm under my head. When I woke up in the morning, that whole arm was completely numb. It was actually quite scary, until I regained feeling.

Hope you'll be able to swing your arms around like propellers real soon!

Raymond

I'm dealing with shoulder tendonitis Thu, 12 October 2017 17:09 Go to previous messageGo to next message

It has calcified . . . bright white on the x-ray. I'll hear tomorrow what the MRI shows. It's pretty uncomfortable :(

Isn't that the military equivalent.... Fri, 13 October 2017 07:17 Go to previous messageGo to next message

...of the more commonly known 'missionary' position in which the Air Force, naturally, is always on top. :)

Giving interservice grief with a double (triple?) entendre is always appreciated.

And pay for it all morning with shoulder pain. My sleeping brain might be trying to punish me.
