Members kannibul3 Posted December 3, 2006 Author Members Share Posted December 3, 2006 Well...it sucks, but I'm sure I could be worse off. Boredom and pain are biggest issues. Fingers can move, have a huge bruise over tricep, from 1" below armpit junction to below bandages. Felt the seam at elbow today with other hand, which is a good 2" above joint... have massive bandage / splint... Still got numbness in fingers, surgery not so bad though...

Members Taco2004 Posted December 3, 2006 Members Share Posted December 3, 2006 I hope the surgery was a complete success. Make sure you get enough ARGININE. Its an amino acid that aids in healing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rushtallica Posted December 3, 2006 Members Share Posted December 3, 2006 Wow~! I knew you'd mentioned carpal a long time ago but had no idea you were going to need a surgery. I even saw where you said you were giving up guitar playing and maybe getting into drums or something. I've been dealing with another recent flareup of tendonitis. It really sucks when you're into something and something lame comes along that interferes. I've known someone else with carpal that used to wear wrist braces all the time at work years ago and hadn't needed them for a long time now, though I'm not sure if it's because she had surgery. Sorry to hear about it, and I hope it fully heals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
