Guest guest Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Hi , I'm so sorry to hear about your setback. I've been wondering how you were doing. I guess if there's any positive way to look at it, is that the dr. caught the problem soon after surgery. I'm glad they are doing something about it. It sounds like your pain was telling you things weren't right, it's so hard to tell. I'm curious, did they tell you how this happened??? My dr. says the rubber bands are only for convenience and I didn't have a splint, so how on earth does shifting happen? I hope they give you answers and this surgery makes it right. You will be in my thoughts on Thursday. We're here for you. Sherri > Bad day for me. I went to my DR today 2 week followup. Last week they > took off the elastic's because of fulid in the joint.
