Hi there,

Thank you for letting me join the community.

I've been struggling for many years with a painful wrist and earlier this year digonosed with a SLAC right wrist. I've opted to go down the surgery route and initially was recommended a good candidate for PCR but after an MRI scan the consultant says as the OA quite extensive a partcial or full fusion would be the better option.

It would be interesting to hear the experiences of others who have had either or both of these procedures as I've been given the option of having a partial fusion initially then potentially a full fusion later or go for the full now.

Many thanks,

Caz
