outsdr | More surgery

So, I'm going to keep this short, because it hurts to type.

The hand specialist (Who looks remarkably like my grandfather, a dairy farmer. Think of a big kindly burly dairy farmer out of All Creatures Great and Small, but wearing scrubs, and that's my specialist) isn't 100% sure that I have carpal tunnel. He is, however, 100% sure that something is wrong, and it is most likely carpal tunnel. I've had the conduction tests, and while the normal set of tests showed nothing abnormal, these results led to further tests which did show nerve abnormalities.

He gave me the option of continuing with the treatments I have been (splints, wraps, anti-inflammatories, and a not of muddled curses when I type completely incoherently, drop things at random, or suddenly feel like needles are being shoved down between my fingers) or have surgery done.

On 9/11, I'm having the surgery done on my right hand. Later, I'll get it done on my left hand. I can't have both at once, because as great as my roommate is, I don't think he wants to wipe my bum for me.
