A matter of Time

Randy,
I do believe you're right. It is only a matter of time but it is like waiting for water to boil. We see our hands slowly degenerate to the point of impacting our daily tasks.
As expected, the good surgeons at NE Baptist hospital acknowledged 'familiarity' with all hand surgical procedures, but would not admit that they don't do NA. They said they could do whatever is needed after examination. They wanted me to make an appointment to continue the discussion.
It is the ignorance they put on that really gets me. My current CHS will talk only about traditional techniques. I went to see the great Red Sox orthopedic surgeon, a CHS and he wouldn't even discuss it. He referred to his technique as 'fillet-ing and reconstructing'. How absurd in the face of all the NA evidence and the fact that ...we all GET IT - THERE IS NO CURE for Dupuytren's (yet). Just give us the use of our hands again for a while.

Highly educated but brainless wimps making money the traditional way - expensive surgeries.

Sorry if I show my anger.

Bob
