The best advice I can give you. Easier said than done, I know. : : : I've had "open" release surgery. You apparently had an "endoscopic" procedure. As most people only have one wrist done at a time, they are able to favour their post-op hand by using their other hand for most things. I don't know how you've been getting by in the bathroom, not to mention the kitchen. It's really important I think to heal right the first time so I'd suggest being exceedingly cautious. : : : The upside? If you can manage to allow both of your hands time to heal (thats your challenge, I think) then you'll be recovered from both surgeries in half the time. : : : Good luck, and again, don't do too much and have setbacks. Be patient, get help. : : Adam, your posts are full of sage advice. What you posted here could be applied to nearly any injury or illness. Healing and caring for yourself is most beneficial not only to oneself, but to others you care for also. : : Corey : Adam always has my support also Corey.. I still remember his post awhile back as being the best one I've read on this board.. Same here, Debbie. I even printed it for reference. The man does seem to be level-headed. So much of what he says can be applied to so many different things. |
