Subject: HAND JOINT REPLACEMENT
A long story cut short - due to lack of use the RA in my right hand has taken off and now I have to have the metacarpophalangeal joints replaced. I understand this doesn't happen to very many people but does anyone here know about the post op prognosis of this surgery? ie does it work is it better
