My body is physically holding me back from my writing

This isn't a post about writers' block or laziness.

I have repetitive strain injury. RSI has held me back in my writing for a long time. I went to the doctor's on Saturday after my hand had been hurting more and more. I've been prescribed painkillers and told to rest my wrist and hand absolutely. Well, that's shit. It's not really possible when I have to drive to work, do work and write.

I'm feeling pretty miserable now. I have the voice software that helps me to write but it's not the same. The creativity doesn't flow in the same way.

One day the doctors won't fob me off and someone will be able to fix this.

I hope...
