Surgery today - forrealone - 03-05-2019
So, in case I forgot to mention it, today I am having surgery on my left thumb for a "trigger thumb". Minor outpatient, local numbing is all. I will be leaving here in about half an hour to head on into Raleigh with my daughter. Surgery is scheduled for between 8:30 and 8:45 am. I should be home by 11 or noon. A little prayer from y'all jic it is needed.

I read this just about the time the surgery was supposed to happen, but I'm praying anyway.

Well, Weds and Thurs were a little rough. Today, no real pain to speak of. I have been bending the interphalangeal joint of my left thumb (look it up tee hee) and i need to do it manually with my right hand to force it back and forth. It will bend on its own but not very far. Tomorrow, i can take the wrap off of my hand and wrist, wash the incision area, then cover it with a bandaid to keep the stitches from catching on stuff. On the 20th, followup and get stitches removed.
So, trigger thumb is resolved; now to wait on complete healing and I will be good to go. Yippee
