So, I ended up back at the doctors yesterday, as my 6 month open appointment with the surgeon ended for my arms. I've been having an increase in pain around my elbow again and I figured I'd nip it in the bud before it got worse.

He did the usual prodding around after I explained what was up and I was giving him filthy looks. Hurt like a bitch. He was only touching it lightly too. The first layer of skin around the scar is numb, but I could feel it underneath and it was like having someone stab you with sharp, hot needles all the way down your arm to your fingertips.

He dictated a letter to refer me back to the surgeon again (Booooo, more faff.), but told me that... Well... To put it bluntly, after having two lots of surgery and it not showing much improvement, he highly doubts that it will ever get better.

*LE-SIGH*

So much for the Fire Service...
