I have tendinitis in my right shoulder, right elbow and my right pinkie finger folds down and won't straighten out. I have to get cortisone shots in each spot every three months or I am in an incredible amount of pain. It is still not enough to make me stop quilting or even slow down. If you can heal with rest and not have to get the shots, that would be the best. Use this time to go through quilting magazines and plan your next quilt. Best wishes for quick and complete healing.
