Progress..Sort Of

Another trip to the surgeon today. I can now start flexing my wrist backwards and really get to work straightening out my fingers again. They have been on hiatus since this last surgery and are not too thrilled about being required to point toward the sky. I need to see the therapist again to redo my splint into a more neutral position and still have to wear it when I am not exercising my hand. I also got some hopefully much needed relief for my shoulder which has been bothering me since I fell and recently the pain has prevented me from from raising my arm....what next??.. so today I got a cortisone shot in the shoulder and an Rx for some anti - inflammatories and hopefully that will take care of the inflammation. I am sooooooo ready to feel like a new woman!

  1. Glad to hear you can do a bit of flexing now. Cortisone...hopefully that will help too!

  2. I hope the cortisone does the job along with the Rx. A new woman is on the way! Enjoy your two weeks at home free from doctor appointments.
