A lady at work had it done about 4 weeks ago…she had it done under local. She was off for 2 weeks and came back to work 2 weeks ago. To be honest I haven’t really discussed it with her but I will try and get more info out of her when I see her tomorrow and report back…
Another friend had it done months ago but I don’t think it was hugely successful as she has little feeling in the tips of her fingers….but maybe she is just unlucky as she has arthritis in her hands too.
