: : It almost looks like you have the mark of Zorro on your wrist. Oh my! That cut goes way up into your palm. Melani, I certainly hope that this is the answer to your prayers and NO MORE NUMB FINGERS!!!!

: : Do you think that your other hand is getting to the point of needing surgery? How do you classify it? Mild, moderate, severe?

: : Please take it easy and don't jump into doing too much too fast.

: Hi Girlfriend, the stitches look worse than they feel. I just have a little bit of stinging going on now. My fingers are still numb but my wrist feels 100% better. I have to go back the 24th to let him know if I'm getting any feeling back. Whether I do or don't, will be ok because the pain gone in my wrist feels wonderful. I can even make a fist now where before it was impossible. The doctor did ask me about my left hand today and I did hesitate in answering him. To be honest I'm not ever going to be ready for another surgery, not that the 3 were bad but there was 3, lol when one should of done the trick. I had mild/moderate in my left hand but I think from having to use it all the time, its probably at moderate. I'm trying out the flextend and right now, I can feel some relief. It stretches out the muscles and ligaments that trap the nerve. I'm going to give it a 100% try before I even think about operating on the other hand. Right now I'm thinking positive that my right hand is going to soon be painfree and I plan on walking the road you and others are doing through alternative methods. Hows your hands doing? I know last time we talked they were acting up again but your music was going on. Let us know, we luv ya, Melani

LOL just call me Zorro...I have the trademark now...Melani
