Stop in for a cup of coffee
How is your hand doing bro, I was telling Tony and Thelma about it
My hand is still hanging off the end of my arm....
The hand is coming along pretty good... I have 98% of my range of movement back and it is getting better as far as the pain and stiffness...
I have been able to lift heavier and heavier things... I lifted a car battery about a week ago which was a good sign... I'm getting better with the compound movements like twisting a door knob and pulling the front door open... It's a little tight and needs more of a pull than the inside doors because of the weather strip and stuff... I have been able to use my hand on that door lately also...
It's almost there, but I still have a little pain and some stiffness... If I over work it, it will get stiff for a while, so I know it's not 100% yet, but I'm not sure how long it's going to take to get there...
My two month follow up appointment should be coming soon, I'm not sure if I should go early this week, or later to see if any more of the stiffness will get better...
I would like to get clearance to go back to work...
My brother was saying to just act like everything's ok at the doctor so I can get my clearance...
I can still do my job as it is right now... I will just have to not push it too much to where it hurts and gets stiff...
I used it the other day to move an 8 3/4 axle around with one of the boys and it was ok... Got a little stiff afterwards, but it didn't have any sharp pain when I had it lifted with my hand...
