Details

My next surgery is scheduled for Thursday, March 26. They will cut where they cut before and remove the bad section of nerve. Then they will cut two places on my wrist and move two tendons to work the fingers and thumb to replace the function I have lost with the extensor muscle. He said, I will be in a cast for 4 weeks then in a splint for 4 weeks. On week 9, I will start therapy 3 times a week for 8-12 weeks. By 6 months I should have as much motion and use as I will have. He said it will not be like it was but I will have the use of that hand.
