I know, I know...I have just been putting off going to the doctor about it, because I am scared of the surgery. I too have heard soooo many horror stories. And I LOVE my job and can't imagine not doing hair! I know its bad for me, but I am in denial. Heck, they are falling asleep now.... 
When it hurts real bad I just take Tylenol Artritus---it helps sooo much with the pain.
But I think its time for me to go to the doctor! Thanks Shana, Villette and Rhonda--thanks for making me open my eyes.  |
Sounds like you really do have it and it only gets worse. I went years with it till I could hardly function with my hands - typing on the computer then was impossible...I could never feel my hands at all.
It is NOT a scary procedure at all.....all surgery has risks...but I can say from experience that this is one surgery I am so happy I had. I probably wouldn't typing this if I didn't get mine fixed. It was horrible.
