My work is killing me

I went to the doctor today for my annual checkup.

He believes that the numbness in my left hand is due to my sitting, slouched over a keyboard, causing a pinching of a nerve in my neck/back/whatever.
He prescribed a bunch of stretches, but it boils down to sitting properly and getting up and loosening up every hour or so.

I also got an EKG (from a cute nurse) and learned that my heart is normal.

It will take a few weeks before they mail the results of all the blood work, but I'm sure it will be along the lines of "you're healthy, but you should watch what you eat, lose a few pounds, and exercise more."
