OPERATIONS

Hi Naomi

I have mid carpal instability which has caused osteoarthritis in my R wrist due to excess movement. I have had a joint replacement in my SCC joint in my R wrist and needed a tendon sheath release aswell due to the effects of the MCI. These were a year ago.

The operation I have just had was to my L wrist to slow down/stop the deterioration and progression of the osteoarthritis by shrinking the capsule to tighten up the joint. Hopefully it will have a good effect to decrease pain and increase the function I have in my L hand aswell.

Take care
Julie

Hi Naomi...In answer to your original question of Operations and experances in hospital...Mine is one of no complaints...once the waite was over.....Ive had both my hips replaced (20 and 18 years ago)....Then followed a quadruple heart by-pass on the back of two heart attacks (6 years ago )..
In all cases the operations and susequent pain relief were superb.....allowing for MRSA avoidance of course xxxxx;)

Hi ya

I know only to well how the hip replacements can make your life alot better. Ive had my left and right done most recent in 05. did me the world of good.

Life changing xxxxxxx;)
