bitzee Posted September 3, 2019 Debby, I am happy that you have had a successful surgery. I want to thank you for posting about this deformity. When you first mentioned it earlier this year, I showed your comments to my husband. This prompted him to have his hand checked by a surgeon that specializes in the hand. Hubby does have Dupuytren’s Contracture, but the doctor says it is too early for surgery. For now the doctor wants to see him every 6 months to evaluate for changes. We know he will eventually need surgery. The layout is great and it appears that even surgery isn’t stopping you from enjoying a tasty treat. Quote Link to comment

So glad he is being checked. Mine happened in about a year and a half. I was lucky they could just inject mine (no surgery) but if the injection went wrong it would have been emergency surgery right then and there. Interesting it usually effects people with Western European heritage and I'm mostly German. I wish him luck. Quote Link to comment
bitzee Posted September 4, 2019 Thanks, Debby. I am glad the injections worked. He has an appointment next month and I want him to ask the doctor about the injections. He also has some German heritage. Quote Link to comment
