Default Hi Lisa

I had nerve entrapment on both hands following my car accident in 2000.

Piture it: Ford Ranger Pickup - Quite Small.

Me: Damm Good Looking and 6'5" - Quite Big

Yes I was wearing a seatbelt and no there was no air bag in the truck - I had already dropped her off!

I was hit head on and was gripping the steering wheel so hard that it broke and I put both of my hands through the windshield. I fractured both wrists and crushed the carpal tunnels in both wrists as well. I needed carpal tunnel release surgery to fix them. It was the surgery on the left wrist which started the RSD and got me into this hell I live in now!! But I have learned to cope with it, and with the help from some great drugs of course. Just hang in there and know that we are all in this with you. Chin up!!!

Mark
