Day II

Waking up on Monday August 22nd, even though the Pins and needles (p&n) appeared to have intensified (but I couldn't tell with 100% certainty due to the nature of those feelings), it didn't even alarm me enough to tell my girlfriend. This is remarkable, because normally I would even tell her when I had an aching hair. But I still figured it was from the heavy lifting, so I got in my car and drove the hour to work.

I worked as an IT Engineer for a large Dutch Television Facility provider. It had a very large building and since I assisted my colleagues on site, this required a lot of walking, including stairs. The p&n were clearer when I was using the limbs (so hands and feet) that were affected than when I was sitting down. Due to the many walks at my work, I was confronted by it all day long. It bothered me, but still didn't really alarm me.

Not least because I knew so many diseases and their symptoms. I didn't know of any diseases that caused this particular symptom, so I was still positive that I had bruised a nerve or something.

Even when I got home that day I didn't consider it important enough to tell my girlfriend.
