Follow-up On My Hand

Tuesday, February 11, 2014
So I fell about a month and a half ago now. The outside of my hand has healed up pretty well but it still hurts a ton any time I push myself off the bed, pick up a pan in the kitchen or press it against the steering wheel. I scheduled an appointment and went in today.
I didn't like my Dr the fist time we met but this visit went much better (I've learned to ask more questions). She agreed that it is strange for it to still be hurting and said I was right to come in. She ordered x-rays of my finger and hand and said she thinks there could possibly be something in it.

I asked what would happen if there was something in it and she said I would have to get surgery at this point! Maybe I'm crazy, but I thought that sounded exciting! I'm glad it is my left hand so it wouldn't be as annoying and if there was a way to fix it so it stops hurting and could heal properly, I am all for it!

I will get the results on Thursday or so. Honestly, I doubt anything showing up on the x-rays though. My wrists hurt all the time but blood work and x-rays have never shown anything but I'm hopeful there will be something we can do to fix the problem.
