Congratulations on getting those beautiful maps published! I'm sorry for your pain. I'm right handed and have a shoulder impingement of my right shoulder with started with a small rotator cuff tear a couple of years ago. My health provider does not issue pain meds to me, and hasn't for a couple of years. Not for anything, not mild, not heavy duty. None. Ever since the big opioid scandal, doctors are reluctant to give out ANY pain meds here. So I get cortisone shots in my shoulder every four months.

Oh Sandra. The thought of not having access to painkillers on prescription when, I suspect, they can be bought on the web frightens me. Far better to legalise and manage painkillers (and drugs) than on the black market. I have never taken recreational drugs but, like smoking, bans are dangerous things. Another bond between us. As I have just said to Susan, our experiences are universal, but it provide kinship in unexpected and lovely ways. Take care. ❤️🐰Robert.
