Elbow has me on Darts IR for 6-8 weeks

Ok the problem with my elbow is that the nerver (funny bone nerve) is popping in and out of where it is supposed to be. The doctor gave me the silly knee strap to put on if I am going to be doing any kind of physical activity that might cause it to pop. Also I am to refrain from Darts for 6-8 weeks. No darts! Blah! URG!!! And this probably will sideline me for fall league. I am not hopefull it will be ok in 2 months... It hurts every nite when I am sleeping and I think all the typing I do at work somehow contributes to the pain. Rest... the alternative is surgery!
