It was a pretty simple procedure from my end, sometimes I wonder if I need the surgery due to some pain I have near the elbow, but I'm pretty sure it's just tennis elbow from lifting weights. Good luck with your surgery!
I think I’ll be pretty immobilized and can’t exercise (sweat = change the bandage) for two weeks, but that much immobile is more than advertised. They aren’t doing anything for my thumb which hurts worse.

Expectation I’m told to have is no strength recovery in my last two fingers, but at least they won’t claw up later in life.

I’m leaning to nappy time. I’m good with surgery, but not sure I can wrap my head around my own.
