Both my mother and I have been cashiers at some point. And the both of us have gotten tendonitis from it in both forearms. I atually got Carpal Tunnel syndrome just before the tendonitis set in. She hasn't been a cashier in more than a decade but her arms are still clearly suffering as she can't put any strain on them before they hurt again. Mine started a yeas ago and I worked 6 months on them before I had to quit. I too can't pinch something and either lift it or move my arm without intense pain. I also can't do much lifting or say carrying home groceries without the pain lasting for another few days. Will we EVER get over this? Any rememdies?

I saw doctors all last year. They've considered it healed. My mother 'healed' long ago according to the docs.

my sister has tendonitis since 2000, she got casted a few times... that helps her against the pain, did they ever cast you?.
Her doc says that only in extreme cases the do surgery, but the most common treatment is inmovilization with casts or braces.... thats a pain :( I hope you too get well soon!
