@WeeEileen You will need a lot of patience it has been 5 months since my op and although still not fully healed it is definitely better. I still have numbness at base of thumb, but OT said it can take up to 12 months to fully heal. The worst part for me was being in a cast for 8 weeks, its difficult with only the use of one hand. I need my left hand done as well and will now definitely consider it. Good luck.
