I swear I’m meant to have seen the consultant by now again? Maybe work chasing it up. As I have a few questions.

Now the swelling is massively reduced I (think I)  can feel the tip of a pin that’s fusing the MCP joint, so I believe it is this that stops me from flexing the top of the thumb fully. (But I could be delulu)  And also the weird shooting pains I get in the forearm. I’d love to know what this is, maybe a bit of nerve compressing?

But then looking at this x-ray the pin isn’t in the way 🤦‍♀️ so is it ligaments too tight?

My grip strength is back to before surgery, which is great, dexterity is really good. The book nook I’ve been making for 2 months really helped in that department. It’s now getting the wrist in check and strengthened 

Available here a video of mt hand flat on the floor. This is 160 days post op.
