Well most days my writing when I sign my name which is the only time I write or write down a phone number with a brief name to go with it or an appt date, it always looks like chicken scratch and almost hard to make out what it is.
I took a pred dose pak a week or so bad, because I was not doing so well. It has actually lasted longer than it normally does, or the Humira is just working like it is suppose to.
Anyways... yesterday I wrote out my list of complaints for my RD. It was readable, but still did not look like my old writing. Today... I wrote down a name and phone # and it looked like my old writing from before my right hand got so bad off.
I hardly ever have any good writing days anymore, before there use to be more good writing days than a couple of bad writing days.
Good thing I do not really like to write. I LOVE to type every since I have had a computer. I would rather type than write.
Me too! It is much faster. I can type 70 words a minute but can't write that fast!
Phats
WOW!! You can type fast! I can type 32WPM. That is why I will not be able to get a desk job Well jooniebuggie....it sounds as if SOMETHING is working! let's not question it let's just go with the flow on it lol.
I don't write as well either anymore. I had beautiful handwriting and not being able to write well just really sucks for me. But hey...whaddayagonnado? When I have a good hands day, my fingers FLY across the keyboard. BUT, I used to type for a living. I have done relay service for the deaf, hearing impaired and the speech impaired. Minimum speed to get in the door...60 wpm CORRECTED. So *shrugs*
I am lucky enough to be able to type about 100-110 wpm, and it's a good thing because my writing is terrible and really strains my hands.
An interesting idea...I was talking to my mortgage broker about closing on the condo next week and also about my medical issues, and she asked if I ever thought about simplifying my signature, especially since I'll have to sign a gazillion things for the closing. Never thought of that...it's my signature, I can make it what I want. But I'm so in the habit of doing it my original way, which is long.
I can barely write anymore and I'm 34
Thank God I can type!! I am so lucky, I am so sorry for you guys who can barely write. That just happens to me when I'm having a bad flare. Hi, I can barely type and my writing is like chicken scratch, and since I left school my spelling is terrible
(there were 8 typos in this before I went back and corrected them.) sheesh
Kinda OT, but too funny not to share. Although I type fast, for some reason I always kinda know when I make a typo, and I usually backspace back to it and start again...just naturally as I go. At work yesterday, I was typing an e-mail, got to the end, and said to myself, "wait a minute, something's not right". I went back and read it and instead of type "you" I has accidentally typed "ewe"...something I never have occasion to type. Very, very weird.
I think that can be attributed to your meds. For some reason I can spell words while typing the same as when I am sounding them out in my head. Kinda like your "ewe". I have realized that I do not pronounce words they way they are ment to be prounounced, sense being on stronger meds. And at one point and time, when I was on Arava, I even forgot how to spell the most simpliest of words, and even forgot phone #'s I dialed at least 10-15 times a day, ok maybe not that many, but it was 5-10 times a day. I would call my mommy and complain to her about hubby, this is when we were first married.
