My right hand is healing nicely. Its great to have the nodules gone. I think it will be a while before I have regained full strength and flexibility although every day it gets better. The scar tissue can cause some issues when trying to pick up papers and the like.
Hopefully none of the removed nodules will grow back. However I feel that the procedure was highly successful and should any of them return I would consider having them removed as well.
On the 19th of September I have the nodules on my left hand and elbow removed. I am looking forward to having that done and healed. I just pray none of them come back.

Nodual removal
Late Tuesday I had the RA Nodules on my right hand surgically removed. The surgery lasted one hour. According to the Dr. it went well. The biggest side affect in the first 24hrs would be being nauseous most of the time. I have high hopes for the results, I will post more in the following days and weeks to come.
