Forecast from this end: staticky, a little raw around the knuckles.
Hands worse by 3pm today, worse than yesterday too. Neck’s quiet for once, first calm stretch in about 6 days, so that’s the one clear patch in an otherwise grey system.
– hands: not good
– neck: fine, weirdly
– sleep last night: 5.5 hours
Logged it in the notebook next to Tuesday’s entry. 9 hours at the keyboard so far and the day’s not done.
Mine flares in the afternoon too, about 3 weeks now. Is it mostly from keyboard time or does it happen on lighter days too?
The neck being quiet while your hands flare up is such a weird trade-off, mine does that too. Feels like my skin only has enough calm to spare for one spot at a time some days. Hands worse by 3pm tracks with when I stop drinking water at my desk, at least that’s my working theory this week.
The 3pm hand flare hitting right on schedule is so relatable, mine does that too most days. Rotating shifts wrecked my baseline for years so a night of only 5.5 hours doesn’t surprise me, that kind of sleep debt always shows up on my hands within a day or two. Six calm days on your neck after a stretch like that still counts for something even with the hands acting up
Is it the typing or the weather that’s flaring your hands more today?
