Hi there- Ali's mum here
Alison went to theatre yesterday for a splint to be applied
The hand was opened fully and a splint moulded in theatre, however as soon as she came through to recovery and began to wake, the RSD and spasms kicked back in and drew the hand back into a partial fist, which is not quite as bad as before, but as her hand is fighting against the splint, she was given morphine for the pain
The doctors and physios are reassessing this morning but if the splint makes the pain unbearable without morphine it may have to be removed
I'll keep you posted on what happns later
