Surgery

A week later, on April 4th, I had the surgery and two new steroid injections at the base of the middle finger and little finger; nodules had developed in my palm at the base of these fingers. I had a plaster cast for a week.

  

When the cast was off, I started therapy again.

The first three weeks after surgery were very difficult, the hand was still very irritable ad would “flare up”. My little finger got really swollen and almost deformed and felt really painful. I felt dizzy almost permanently was nauseous and extremely tired. Night time was getting better though, the pain diminished and I could get more sleep.
