I would like to share my experience with a surgery performed by Dr. Haynes. I had been “putting off” Carpal Tunnel surgery that I should have had done years ago. Needless to say, I let it go long enough, that I have been told that I do have some nerve damage that is irreversible…that was my stupidity. I got to the point that I couldn’t sleep more than an hour or two at night without having my hand and arm wake me with pain shooting throughout from my armpit to the end of my fingers.
Dr. Haynes operated on my right hand on Thursday morning. I could tell immediately it was going to be a great relief to not have the pain that I had constantly had for the last few years. I kept it elevated until Saturday and flexed my fingers often. I have been doing just about anything that I wanted to do, boating, cutting and splitting wood, working in my shop, etc. I have slept well every night since the surgery and continue doing well.
I urge anyone that needs this surgery to get it done, do not put it off until you are in constant pain. It is such a simple solution to such a major problem.
