My hands are so painful.

Last night was bad & today isn’t any better. My thumb is the worst. It’s puffy and red. There’s a sore or callous maybe, forming on it. I really hope it’s not a calcium deposit. My rheumy just started me on Prozac. It’s supposed to alter the chemicals in your brain and help with Raynaud’s symptoms. It doesn’t appear to be helping me. I’m getting zero relief. It’s hard to see in pictures but they’re pretty swollen & red.

It’s unbelievable how much pain, inflammation can cause. There are days it’s unbearable. All you can do is carry on. Unless you have some pixie dust. Then I say use that magical shit!
