It's frustrating to have my fingers stiffen up constantly, even though I'm continually doing the exercises to stretch the tendons...stop for a minute and you would swear you had never done any stretches. It's my left hand and wrist, and I was left-handed before I broke my wrist. I knew the screw had done a lot of damage, but I was hoping that it would start getting better since the screw actually came out without having to cut or remove bone. I have absolutely no strength in that hand now. At least it's not as swollen and purple as it was before the screw was removed!

Forgive me for sounding like I'm whining. I know most of you deal with a whole lot worse with this stuff. I just felt like I could vent here. Thanks for letting me.

Desi, it's good to know there are others on here who are staying strong in Christ...supporting each other.

By the way, I live near Fresno, California. The hand specialist I'm going to is great. If anyone knows of good doctors in the area, let me know.
