Need my Hands Back :(

Terry01

Hi all,

I was diagnosed with RA around 11 years ago.

Despite medication my hands have suffered from really bad finger/knuckle deviation. I used to play the guitar a lot up until about 5 years ago when it became to difficult and painful. My question is, I know there is surgery available at some point, is there any chance they will be fixed enough to start playing again? Advice from another guitarist would be helpful.

Thanks!!

Don't know of any guitarists here Tezz @Terry01

But there have been people on here who have had finger joint replacements
