ouch had my tendon op


i went into ward 18 at ninewells hospital in Dundee on monday and had an operation on my right hand.....
I was awake through it thanks to having a block done on my arm, it was numb from the shoulder to the tips of my fingers.
I heard the operation and at the end was given my hand and arm to hold going to recovery...boy it felt like a couple of bricks...lol
I have a lovely pink cast on as you can see and a nice 3-4 inch wound with 7 stitches in it at my wrist so its rather sore but im coping....just...lol
Hopefully the op has helped to tighten my tendons up again....but it means i cant bead or craft for about 12 weeks due to my hand being in a cast and after the cast comes off it will be very stiff....so im so fed up already thankfully i made all the inserts for my christmas cards on sunday...phew i wouldn't have been able to do them now
