That kind of surgery is not fun. Wishing you a speedy recovery.Still recovering from gallbladder removal two weeks ago. Feel fine, but zero energy. Chest pains in the morning, gallbladder removed in the P.M. Vaguely knew I had one, but no idea where it was. Now I know!
I had it done a few years ago. Surgery was at 6am, at 1130am I was home eating some pizza! Surgeries affect people differently I guess.Still recovering from gallbladder removal two weeks ago.

Congrats KF. Hmm, Animal Science eh, I bet she'll be able to help you on your hunts. Maybe, just maybe, you'll finally get that deer with her help.

Did more research on Trigger Finger. Obtained finger splints for use during sleeping and they seem to help some. Have an appointment with my Orthopedic surgeon for follow-up on my hip problem and will request steroid injections in the affected fingers. Based upon what I've read steroids are very effective for trigger finger.I'm experiencing some weird arthritic pain in the second joint of middle fingers in both hands. If I make a fist have to pry the fingers back up. No snide remarks. (LOL)
I have this affecting fingers on both hands on occasion RC. I went to see a Orthopedic Surgeon who told me the affected finger tendons were binding up in the sheathes the tendons glide through. He gave me a shot(s) which didn't much help. He mentioned that other than shots, surgery was the next option. It usually happens to me when I clench something quickly, and at most, a mild to no pain sensation when pulling the finger(s) to straighten them back into normal position. Oddly, it's never happened when shooting, so at least to date, that's a good thing.Did more research on Trigger Finger. Obtained finger splints for use during sleeping and they seem to help some.

That was exactly what I had. First were the shots but didn't do anything. Then they did the operation in the sheathes. Trigger finger and the next two. Really don't remember being a painful operation. Had been good for a few years but now arthritis is affecting them. They do attribute it to being an aircraft mechanic and constantly using the hands. Now I have good days and not so good days. Unfortunately it's just a part of growing older I guess. Fingers don't lock up like they used to but sometimes they just hurt like hell.

Good luck with your prognosis, I hope you get a positive resolution.
Glad the targets were up to snuff.went chootin this morning first was the S&W 44 mag, run everything suppressed. had to get the sight picture to hit center, after i found center i quit. far right is 44 mag and other two is 44 special.
Then took the suppressor off and changed mount for the Henry 357. it's 5/8 and S&W is 11/16, Hensry was hitting to the left and kinda wild so i took the suppressor off after about ten rounds. adjusted sight and it still wasn't shooting like the S&W. Center and right one is henry and the others are S&W again with 44 special. i had half a box left and wasn't taking it home. had to change mounts again
Ah shoot, i tried to do a cliff post but screwed up and ain't redoin it, i'll just say the smith 44 mag out shot both of them. Rossi was the worst, which wasn't aweful

Thanks BET7. So far don't think my shooting hasn't been affected and my only pain occurs when pushing the fingers back into place. My research lead me to think surgery would be needed if the steroid injections didn't work, hope not.I have this affecting fingers on both hands on occasion RC.

Good luck!!Finally made up my mind and will carry the G19 for a spell. On those days that my back is bothering me I will carry a Smith Bodyguard 2.0 that I have had for a while. Carrying a 380 really doesn't bother me. I did sell the Hellcat and got $450 for it. I will wait for FN to let me know what the problem is. I did notify Freedom Munitions of the issue and they have sent me an email to get more info which I have sent to them. Now, they seem very concerned. It's not like I am hurting for firearms and this will give me some time to "look" around. I feel comfortable carrying a Glock as one did save my life a few years back.
