Good to hear the op went well go steady of the next couple of weeks. Sorry but never heard of these other two that you now have, you will have to enlighten us. Will this be the answer to your consultant when he said that he was looking for other things than RA? Take care. xxx

Hi Allanah, sorry you have to contend with other problems as well. I have read about these and they sound very debilitating and painful. I found good info on this link dupuytren-online.info/ for both conditions, sounds like it could be genetics.

Hope you get good results from your operation and you get the treatment you need soon.

Do you know aboutit

in reply to allanah

No, nothing I'm afraid. Only what I read in the link. Haha, my post did sound like I was knowledgeable didn't it? What I meant to say was that I know it's probably difficult for you to type at the moment so will ask questions etc when you are feeling better. x

Still waiting for a repeat ultrasound at north staffs hospital. Did have an appt prior to Christmas but was too ill to attend. Will need surgery at some point, want to get RA under contol, before I contemplate surgery. Risks and benefits to assess. Being a nurse has its hazzards.......

Hi Allanah, glad it's done and hope you're feeling better very soon. What a wretched nuisance that they've found something else.

Take care,

Hi Allanah, waiting is the worst !!! I just recently came out of a sling so i know how difficult it is managing things especially if its your dominant hand. I hope they get the results to you soon.... Good luck.
