Fighting through the pain!!!!

Since last Friday I have had some serious elbow pain in both elbow joins. I have done a little research and it looks like and "over use" injury and is elbow tendonosis. Not tendonitis. It is easily fixable, by taking up to 3 weeks off! LOL, yeah right! So here is what have done instead...
