billtech66's Journal, 28 November 2016

I can no longer use my expensive Surge Fitbit activity tracker/watch.
I've been using various fitbits for 13 months. And the Surge Fitbit for the last 4 months.
I had to stop using Surge fitbit; due to it causing tennis elbow and wrist pain on left arm for the last three months, slowly getting worse, but NO pain at all in right arm or wrist. Tennis Elbow Pain Not Responding To Doctors Procedures.
Confirmed: got pain in right wrist within 12 hours after swapping fitbit to right arm face up. and this pain gone within 3 hours after removing it.!! Pain in left wrist completely gone in 10 hours. but left arm Tennis Elbow pain is fading but still there. I don't play Tennis.
I thought at first that tennis elbow was from weight training, but I work out only twice a week, then thought it was from playing video games, but only play about an hour a day. But cutting way back on weights and playing video games made no difference in three weeks.
Removing fitbit that tracks heart rate (but not very well), has already helped a LOT in less than 15 hours.

11/30/16 update: wrist pain still completely gone. Tennis elbow improving slowly. My brother said it took him 2 years to fix his completely (from racquetball). although I played racquetball for 14 years 2-3 times a week without getting tennis elbow. I'm hoping to fix this a lot sooner than two years :) ALSO, I talked in online CHAT with fitbit, and next day they offered a full refund, including tax, and free return shipping. :) which I am accepting. :)
