I have a Euro torch for the tig side of my welder.
Just recently I've had an angiogram , it was put in through my right wrist by my thiumb , unfortunately it didn't quite go according to plan .
The probe went between the lining & the wall of the artery , ended up breaking out the artery and causing internal bleeding in the muscles of my right arm from my wrist to the crook of my arm.( Very very painful for a few weeks )
it's left me with a permanently collapsed artery .
Fortunately nature designed man so that there are other arteries in the limbs that can take over part of the task of blood supply if one gets damaged through trauma .
This has happened , but It means I only have partial blood supply to the area, my right hand gets fatigued very quickly , so much that I'm finding nit difficult to hold the TIG torch with my thumb on the top rocker switch for much more than 8 seconds . It's doubtful that things will improve past from where they now are .
Unfortunately the welding unit does not have the facility for a foot pedal ... Has anybody got any suggestions as to which direction I should look at things to over come the problem ?
