Hi Carol,
Leaping in your pocket and hope it will go well and they will have some good ideas to make it better for you. Cris x0 -
Thanks all for pocket duties today
appt went quite well consultant agreed with doctor and also suggested steroid injection which I agreed to, expecting him to say ok we will arrangeanother visit, but the next thing he said to me are you ok for me to do it now. I know have sore place in the palm of my hand and been told to keep it elevated as much as poss for the next 48 hours. :roll: oh well no knitting when watching tv tonight or tomorrow.Stay positive always👍xx0 -
Hello Turbogran, how are you now? I hope the steroid has eased things, they can be very effective but resting the injected joint after can be a bind. :roll: Anyhoo, your 48 hours are nearly done and I hope things are OK. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Hi DD and Val
I'm ok DD as you say resting the hand and keeping it elevated as much as poss is a real pain still only about 5 and a half hours to go before the 48hours is up. I've been a good girl and kept it elevated and rested as much as poss :roll: when i'm sitting down so hopefully it will work.
the consultant did say it might take a little time to work Val so i'm not expecting things to happen to quickley.Stay positive always👍xx0 -

Claire finger is not painful at present it still locks every now and then but consultant did say it may take a few days to kick in so as it was only done just 47 and a half hours ago I dont think its doig badly.Stay positive always👍xx0 -

Great news Tubrogran
My ex MIL has these jabs fairly regularly...she has had probably three for her triggers finger, but it has lasted about a year in between jabs
