Third hand surgery and hopefully my final hand surgery is complete.
Please, please, if you know something isnβt right, advocate for yourself. You know your body.
I was told time and time again that there was nothing wrong, or that what I was experiencing was caused by something else. Each time, I pushed back. I kept asking questions, kept advocating for myself, and kept pushing for proper diagnosing and imaging.
And today, I finally got the answer I had been fighting for.
I was right. Something wasnβt right with my hand.
After everything Iβve been through, having my concerns finally validated is a feeling I canβt quite put into words.
Hereβs to healing, patience, and hopefully the final chapter of this hand journey.
If you have a gut feeling that something isnβt right with your body, listen to it. Ask questions. Keep advocating. You know yourself better than anyone.
