I was just wondering if your recovery is still going well.

Have you knuckled down to any work yet? :roll: :roll:

I hope you don't mind me asking! :?:

    Hi Lindah,

    Just spotted this post :D . Sorry for the delay :|

    Well.... me hand is good ta. No pain! I know, I know..... hard to believe 3 weeks in but true.

    I still have to wear my splint most of the time ( although I ain't got it on right now 8) ) and take it off every hour..ish to do my exercises.

    My fingies are straight and still no deviation to speak of. I am careful though lifting stuff without my splint on (which you just have to some times ) as they mess with the muscles in the op so the ones that hold ya fingers on the thumb side ( stopping ulnar deviation ) are muchos weakoss at present. Gotta build em up!

    So all in all I'm pretty happy with the hand op. I'd recommend it to all who need it.... at the moment anyway.

    Better go put my splint on now. Oh... and do some more exercises too.

    Bend it shake it!
