Hiya

Thanks for all your wishes and messages, much appreciated. Finally just got out of hospital after the most boring 2 days ever sitting by myself in a room with no tv/music/interaction!
The surgery was a success and the surgeon has corrected my nerves under the thumb back to normal. My hand will still be numb (they gave me a general anesthetic, and a local one for my hand) until this evening... so I won't know until then if I will have full sensation back.
When I woke up\ after the surgery I had 'post anesthesia shaking' which was a little scary as I was only half awake and was wondering wth was going on!
I have to go back in 2 weeks to get the stitches out... they used 16.
One of the worst things was only being allowed to eat and drink between 12am and 4am for the last 2 days! I've been starving/thirsty the whole time... and on that note, I'm off to cook the biggest meal ever!

Thanks once again!
