Long-time members might remember me complaining over problems with my back, neck and arms/hands several years ago. Since then my problems have overall worsened rather than disappeared. In 2012 I got a pain in my feet that has been so bad that I haven't been able to walk or (especially) stand very much since then. I had to cancel a holiday trip in 2013 with Dan, Honorio and Nicolas because of my feet.
I still haven't met Dan!
The feet pain took over some of the back pain, so sitting has been better than standing during these years, and therefore I have continued to spend a lot of time at my computer.
During 2012-2014 most doctors believed that I had plantar fasciitis, but everything I did to get rid of the plantar fasciitis (stretching etc) only worsened the pain.
But since this winter I run in water almost every day, which has improved my condition and blood circulation, and is probably the main reason why the feet are slowly getting better now. The training has been quite tough for the rest of my stiff body though, so I have rested a lot during the last months. And when I have spent time at the computer I have often felt that my body really doesn't like it. Any static or monotonous work, standing or sitting, is a bit difficult at the moment. Especially in the evenings (i.e. my spare time) when my body is tired.
No doctor has been able to explain the source to my pain, but I might have just recently found it myself: Ankylosing spondylitis, which progresses slowly, usually in the lower back and sometimes also cause pain in the plantar fasciitis.
I hope you agree with me that my health is more important than the website. I haven't given up hope though. I will try to get some work done during my summer holiday. The annoying thing is that before I slowed down (stopped, actually) the work on the site, I worked on some great site enhancements that I really want to share with you!
I have also included a lot of all-time lists, but I have not added any additional pre-2014 albums or songs which is a very timeconsuming bit. I think I will have to skip that. Also, I haven't included the 2014 EOY lists to the all-time data yet. That's necessary of course, so that's the main work left.
It might be difficult to share any of the work, but I'll see what I can do if anyone wants to help.
