They're gonna do a pre-op physical and make sure the infection is gone next Tuesday, Then take me in Wednesday, knock me out, tie the tendons back together, then drive a ten penny nail down the center of the thumb, that is through the center of the bone, and right on through the joint to hold it still until the tendons heal up.
Should be fun.
Hopin that nail is made in U.S.A. out of good material--an imported one will scare me.
The way things have been goin', It will probably get infected in the bone and they'll have to lop my whole friggin hand off...lol. Let's hope not :lol: Hey, at least its outpatient!!! NO hospital stay, yay :D
When they remove the nail later, think I"m gonna take a good piece of osage to bite down on when they pull it out... :roll:
