Well I am back 7 weeks later, and what an improvement!

When I last saw the 'hand specialist' they wanted to see if they could rush me into surgery because very soon I would not be able to make a fist.

I had never even thought of this (I am a lover not a fighter! ) and it took ages for me to make a VERY weak fist. When I managed to make it, my medial nerve screamed out in agony.

Well last night I tried again... holey moley - what a change! Straight into a tight fist you could hit a punch bag with, (and my wee pinky finger moved with all the rest into a tight ball)

My medial nerve didn't even blink an eye!

Tomorrow I have been invited to answer questions at the 'The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh' as well! Scary stuff!

Long may it continue... more updates along the way! w00tage.

I know I have hijacked this thread, would you like me to start a separate one?
