Thank you for a serious answer Derfie. I had the same problem in my right arm years ago when I was a bowler. I tried everything and went to many different doctors and they could find nothing. I didn't want to start with the doctor's again so I immobilized it for a day and I have been popping Advil (totally not like me to do that!) but it's not getting any better. It's funny how certain things really hurt when I do it. It's hard to write for any length of time and I can't brush my teeth at all with my left hand. I guess that's where being ambidextrous comes in handy! The only thing I can think of that might have caused it was all the painting I've been doing. I have a magnet band around here somewhere. I'll try it. Thanks.
