I have Basal joint arthritis in both thumbs which became so severe they removed they removed the thumb joint replacing it with a piece of tendon grafted from my arm. It's been five months since my first surgery and my thumb is just now up and running a 100%. My doctor would not release me to shoot for four months after the procedure. I'm scheduled to have surgery on the other thumb the 24th of next month. Having two procedures will cost me almost year of shooting down time, but without surgery, I'm useless.................
