@hello1234 Good luck on your consultation. Ask lots of questions. I forgot to mention, I think I had a lot of swelling as my doctor failed to have my arm in a sling. I had to keep it elevated pretty high for quite some time. I think most of the swelling in my hand came from having my arm down when walking around or using the restroom. I litterly had to try to hold it up. So you may want to ask about a sling.

@missdi Thank you so much for giving me the extra tip regarding the sling! Sometimes the answer to problems can be something small, but a tip like that may be invaluable and save off a lot of swelling and pain!! I really appreciate you sharing your experience and caring about me. Thank you and I am super happy that your husband was a match! Stay well and I look forward to the time we talk again on Connect again! 🙂
