Thank you. so you fused the joint at the very base of the thumb - is that right? I think that is a much better option than joint replacement. And if I understand this, you still have use of your thumb for grasping.
I ask because I have arthritis in my hands, including my thumbs. No need for surgery yet, but I'd like to understand my options, and what has worked.
I am glad you are doing well! Joe
