magidtherapy today.
bathe hand, new dressing, movements.
much progress. hooray!
the therapist was pretty impressed with how much motion i've gotten back into my wrist. the rest of the movement axes are good, too, but her jaw almost dropped when she asked to see the wrist. the doctor came by at one point, was less impressed - after all, i hadn't injured my wrist.
after another bath (the hand emerges from the lizard claw!), i put a bunch of little, narrow metal cylinders (a couple of millimeters in diameter) into a board, then took them out again, using a tweezers for some of them, which was harder.
i'm supposed to change the dressing myself this sunday... hope i do it ok.
oh, and next week i'll be getting ultrasound! (no, not THAT kind of ultrasound!) apparently it's also used to stimulate soft tissue somehow, so i'll be having it on the back of my hand, to loosen things up some.
