My left thumb has it.
I have an appointment Monday with the surgeon who performed Carpal Tunnel Surgery on the same hand 2 years ago. She's great and did a good job - so I feel good having her involved.
The pain was so bad I got an Rx from my PCP for Meloxicam 15mg, which has helped a lot.
From doing a Google search, surgery to resolve this problem can be done as an out patient and with only a local anesthesia. Guess I will find out on Monday. She will probably want some radiographs first, but hope we can get it done fairly quickly.
Anyone here go through this?
