I'm very curious what happened! O:

Arm pain is a whole lot of no fun, you have my utmost sympathies.

Nothing crazy. I was helping to dismantle part of an enclosure and then assisted in carrying 40lb bags of pellets down a flight of stairs. The enclosure was so poorly put together that it took 3 people (myself included) to carry a very long, very large, and very heavy section across the entire aquarium and that ended up injuring my entire right arm; shoulder to hand. I thought it was common soreness but the pain wasn't going away and I was taking upwards to 3kmg of anti-inflammatory and pain suppressant medicine for it to not work at all. Turns out it's just some minor muscle and nerve straining, but if I continue to work at the pace I was it would only get worse.

The mouth pain was for a totally different reason. I had gotten burned by liquid nitrogen when someone handed me a free sample that had literally been taken out of the substances and not giving it time to cool. As I had never had that type of food before I was unsure as to why it was steaming (I simply thought it was normal steam, like a fun party trick) but it ended up causing burns and blisters inside of my mouth and THAT was the inciting incident that caused me to go to urgent care, where I also discussed my arm pain. So I am currently working through physical therapy, workers comp, and a health department investigation. I'm so stressed ;w; and annoyed.

Oh! I didn't even KNOW about the mouth pain! D:

I'm so sorry to hear all that, it's a huge pile-up of frustrations. :<

I wish you luck in dealing with all the red tape of workers comp and stuff. I just had to do that within the last few months, for the first time, myself, and my case was super minor, but it was still just so annoying.

I’m sorry to hear you also underwent some pretty stressful stuff. What happened?

More annoying than stressful. I sprained a muscle in my back. [And back muscles are kind of all that we snakes have, so.. yeah. >__>]

Oh- I'm sorry to hear that.
