Hand surgery

[knowltoh]

Back in July, I was baiting a night crawler harness and heard and felt a snap in my left hand-----honestly that is how it happened. Monday I had hand surgery to rebuild the band that stabilizes the tendon that sits on top of the middle finger knuckle.

Anyone else experience anything like this. I cannot do anything in my shop for 6 weeks----it has been 3 days and it is driving me nuts!

Go Play Cards.
Go visit a friend.
Go to the nursing home and visit someone.
Hit the library.
Go on a wood hunt and let others do the loading.


Anyone else got any ideas?

No experience but I'll put you in my prayers. Hope it goes smoothly.

Well Herb, I didn't exactly do it the same way but I do have experience with the tendon on the middle finger (and also on the first finger) of my left hand not working exactly according to the original specification. You'll get used to it in 8 or 9 years unless interrupted by death, total disability or dementia - whichever comes first.:biggrin::biggrin:

Get well soon.
