    sometimes when I write, I loose cotrol over my hand for like 1 or 2 seconds!
    It gets a little numb, and then get back to normal!

    stretch out your wrist and forearm

    point your fingers upward and pull back back with other hand towards your arm - should feel a stretch on the underneath of you foremarm (where your veins are)

    point downward and pull back - should feel stretch on top of arm

    interwine your fingers, and rotate in various directions

    stretch fingers out

    Any tingling in your fingers or pain associated with this? Is it all of your hand, or just some of your fingers? Is the numbness on the front of your hand or the back, all of it or just a part? Does any other activity cause that for you? How long are you writing for when this happens?

    A sudden onset of weakness sounds pretty unusual. Are you bending at the wrist much when you write? If it keeps up, and stretching/rest doesn't seem to help, maybe head in to a doctor to get worked up, just to be on the safe side.
