I am looking at having both a tendon transfer AND carpal tunnel release. I will need a cast for a month and a splint for a month....each hand....16 weeks of casts/splints.....I need it done soon, since my radial nerve is going on me.....ugh...I won't be typing very fast when this happens. I assume shortly.

I have horrible arthritis, and at this point, my thumb is moving, and bones are scraping on each other....I can't sleep at nite due to this. Sometimes you just gotta do what ya gotta do.
