I know about the pain and restricted movement, Max, that's why I made merry with it - that's a very basic human psychological reflex, isn't it?
I think it's proper spelling is 'supra' - I wrote what I first heard (oral culture is not a preferable condition, well not for apes of slow wit anyhow).
I have a veritable portfolio of muscular inflammatory problems which are given facts of my life. I used to drink like the Atlantic Ocean and went for all sorts of therapies till I realised it was the body craving muscle soothers. So I threw away the bottle and settled for a glum cohabitation with pain, like a marriage made in Yorkshire :)

Great phrase, Dave, but google on it frightens me.
Pain, restricted movement, uncertain future, expensive treatment....?

I had an achy achilles (a chillies tendon, my brotherinlaw called it) a
while back and it was so lingering...
