I had the Stayblyx implant done in October 2021. I was told that this was the latest and greatest procedure to fix arthritis in my thumb. I also have a female friend that had the CMC Arthoplasty done at the same time done the traditional way. Needless to say, I wish I would have had the traditional surgery. She is back at 90% and I have very limited use of my right hand because of the pain. It is worse now than it was prior to having surgery. I’m scheduled for surgery at the end of November on my left thumb and am having the traditional CMC done. I need to find out if they can fix this at some point. If I could do it over again, I wouldn’t have the Stayblyx implant done!
