General Health Update
5 years ago
Hihi!
So general update from my last journal in regards to my arm/health:
Good news, the pain in my left arm has for the most part, subsided.
However, my right arm (my drawing arm) Hasn't fully recovered. (Though it is significantly better than what it was before!) It's mostly just stuck at a base tenderness and isn't progressing past that. Additionally, putting it to work just causes it to flare up
I'm still not sure what I did to over-stress my arm, I will be seeing a Occupational therapist soon next month though, to hopefully figure that out.
What that means for art/ next months commissions:
Unfortunately, this means that progress on pretty much everything has slowed down again. I still have 1 and a half commissions (3 and a half drawings) That I need to complete in about-total. + 4 Patreon sketches, which (the sketches) I still plan on completing before the month ends.
What's that mean for next month:
Well, I'll be focusing on finishing up the work that I currently have. If I finish that, and my OT says I'm still good to continue drawing, I'll likely be taking in-stream commissions to pass the time through the month. (still debating how to work that, but we'll see)
Not trying to worry anyone! Just giving an update on why things are slowed down again, and what you should expect for next month. :)
Thankyou!~

I missed the first post but wrist issues are common for artists and writers mostly from poor posture and lengthy sessions of creating. We'll have to wait and see what the professional states but it could be something along those lines.
