Get something like this, wear it to bed and when you are not playing SC2. http://www.benik.com/images/adults/w-100.jpg http://www.fieldsportsdirect.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/1024x1024/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/l/p/lp-support-wrist-wrap-726.jpg Get something like these to wear while playing on the computer. I have wrist problems and this stuff has done wonders for me. | ||

That's a dark, dangerous road that I don't think many TL posters are willing to yet travel. | ||

Starcraft is at the point where it's as competitive and dangerous as a real sport, but doesn't have the awareness to help protect the people. Perhaps in the near future (next 5-10 years) eye-tracking technology will have reached a point where it's viable to play games competitively using it in some capacity. Or perhaps we'll just be able to plug our brains in directly I can imagine there being a fuss over it though if that time ever comes, with the mouse/keyboard purists not wanting to give them up. | ||

Why is that responsibility on Blizzard? The viewers make the money for tournaments. Shouldent we start this sort of program? | ||

I know I need to put out more information like "Well I'm retired" or "Its looking positive". But right now my hands just aren't at the point I can come back to play and honestly I'm scared to say I'm retired. Its a scary thing. I don't want to leave e-sports and I don't want to go into casting, but at the same time, my hands hurt way too much when I play sc2 to consider going back to it atm. I can play xbox games on a controller, or even a little of other games like League or Dota or whatever, but whenever I play even 2-3 games of SC2 my hands end up killing me that entire week. I'd love to have had that fixed by now. Its been over 6 months sense I had this hand problem. However I guess things don't always go as planned. I'm going to start part time college shortly. I'm trying all I can to fix the hand problem, but its sad because I just don't have any great news. I still follow the scene as much as I can, and root for my team mates. As for diet, its still fairly similiar to my last blog, So nothing great on that front. Just in a place where I'm really sad about my hands, because SC2 was my life. And by no longer being able to play games, or go to events I kind of lost a lot of friends, or at least interaction with friends. So just going on and hoping in the future. If you have any questions I'll do my best to answer em here. Sorry its not great news, but not too much I can do with hands like this. I will say over the past few months they've been getting better. For a week or two they've been feeling great, but then I played a few SC2 games and it went from no pain to lots of pain. So it seems very SC2 related rather then just typing on the computer or playing other games. I'm taking lots of supplements for my hands, and just trying/tried so many things for them. Anyway thanks for still having an interest in me even though I haven't released much information lately. I obviously still read TL all the time and love this community aw, that was disheartening to read, hope you get better soon Sheth!! I'm just curious about one thing though, sorry if its ignorant, but is it possible that the posture in which you play (keyboard on your lap) just isn't good for the hands? | ||

From the parallel stuff what tends to work quite well is: - Acupuncture/Shiatsu (only a few places, and apparently it hurts quite a lot when they do it). - Yoga stretch/breathing exercises (really long term), but that might not help you :/ - Hot stone massage for reduction of scar tissue (might have some sheath of scar tissue hanging around nerves it shouldn't, dunno) Also, mental state seems to be really important so I would advise you to get involved into something quick (casting, or shows for noobs or advanced people, or deep replay analysis show, dunno). These things helped people I personally know with spine problems, articulation problems, surgery problems etc. Myself for my dance practice induced pains (still quite mild) I often go for swedish massage and electric massage. I will go try hot stone massage for some scar tissue problems. I had had hand nerves problems but nothing that bad that a few weeks/month of taping and being careful + occasional electric massage wouldn't resolve it. | ||

You gotta move on. Your hands are only gonna get worse without surgery. Even if you were to get it, you probably shouldn't be a full time SC2 pro afterwards. Why invest so much of your life in an esport dominated by Koreans? Look out for yourself, brother. | ||

I was actually looking just this week to see what's been up with you as are one of my favorite personalities no question. I've actually drawn inspiration from your weight loss goals to power my own (15 down, 50 more to go haha). Having suffered from chronic shoulder pain as well, I can understand how awful it must feel, but I'm sure it'll work out. Keep trying to be as positive as you can and I'll keep cheering for you in all you do! | ||
