Wrist fusion

Got ny second opinion on my wrist and he agrees I should do a full wrist fusion. I’m going to schedule it for March and hope all goes well. Since I had already done the SLAC surgery in May they dont have much to work, Not looking forward to the restriction of my wrist but the pain and burning are too much.

Hope this is an encouraging and positive note, both of my wrists fused naturally at an early age and I don't miss them! I'm sure it will feel strange to begin with but I function perfectly well with stiff wrists. Wishing you well.
