I had minor surgery on my left hand today. I bump appeared
a couple of months ago on one of the joints in my middle
finger, and has recently become inflamed and sore. The
doctor diagnosed a "synovial cyst". He gave me a shot of
local anesthetic, and used a huge syringe to try to aspirate
it. However he punched through the other side, and ended up
just using manual pressure to force out the contents of the
cyst, then gave me a shot of cortisone to help reduce
swelling. So now I'm icing my hand, not getting much done
at the moment. He says it may come back...or not... ;-}

Ahhh, lumpy finger syndrome, I know it well. ;-) Hope it heals up
fast! Hope the treatment wasn't worse than the condition, too. Rest
and relax, put your feet up, watch some old movies or read a novel and
eat some bonbons. You've earned it.

I changed the dressing this morning, ugly looking, swollen,
spectacularly bruised, but not draining or anything, so
apparently healing. :-) I'll finally catch up on some of
the DVDs my DDs have given me. Or finish the Ben Franklin
biography I've started and stopped about a dozen times.

Just take care of the wound. Watching DVDs sounds like an excellent way to
relax and rest your hand; and reading about "old" Ben Franklin should be
interesting.

I am, I have a prescription for a sooper-dooper antibiotic.

I would love to read more about B. Franklin. However, I
have "Benjamin Franklin - An American Life" by Walter
Isaacson, and I loath this book. I can't seem to get past
the first two chapters before throwing it down in disgust.
Maybe I'll look for another bio.
