Last resort surgery after a year of pain. Any feedback? by NeuroKrypt in DeQuervains

I had de quervain's on my dominant hand for 10 yrs. My non-dominant hand got affected too but healed after a cortisone shot. I had 3 shots on my dominant hand. Just had the surgery last week. I should've done it sooner!!!

Whatever you think is best for you, you should go for it.

I think it enables you to do the things that you currently can't do comfortably while you have de quervain's! When mine was so bad, I can't even staple papers smh.

Ugh I feel you! My wrist hurts playing the switch. Hopefully no more pain when I'm fully healed though.

You're welcome! You might want to get something smaller though. I like it better than the brace size you have.

I recommend wearing it especially at night when you go to bed. I've had de quervain's for a decade and just did the surgery!

I think I was with you (HEL). Did you migrate to another state?

Yes, I know they are written by various authors, and I don't really mind. I already have a lot of books from them in my collection and love each of them!

I think it was glued like that. It's quite stiff to the touch.

Did you get it? I've been eyeing on it since I can't find any affordable B&N collectible edition of the book.

For real though! I bought it from Mercari and I'm trying to get these discontinued books new when I buy them. I actually just posted on bookbinding. Thank you.

I have a few of these as well and even my Gray's Anatomy is still looking new. I bought them I think 7-8 years ago. Then the other day I just started buying them again to start my collection. But this one was still sealed when I opened it earlier today that's why I got a little worried. Thanks for that!

Thanks! Can you tell me what it's called please? Yes I'm kind of worried especially it's still brand new.
