Best wishes from me too, Gargoyle.

I have some idea of what you must have been going through. A few years ago I smashed my left wrist. I was lucky to have a marvellous hand surgeon. Now after 3 operations, I still have some tendon damage, and my thumb doesn't bend quite as much as I'd like it to when I go to pick up a tiny object between thumb and fingers, but it's not a big deal. I'd say I'm back to at least 90%, and there are still small signs of improvement as the months go by. I don't think I will have any more operations, as it has got to a point where I mostly forget about it, and it is not preventing me from doing anything important.

In your case, there is obviously more that can be done to help you get back to playing the guitar as you want to, so good on you for wanting 100% and keeping on going with it. My thoughts will be with you.
