I have had both hands done after suffering with excruciating pins and needles, numbness and pain for too long. The surgeries were a breeze - both done in the doc's office with no anesthesia, just novacaine. I made fast and full recoveries in both hands. Ensure you are using a hand surgeon as opposed to a general surgeon. Best of luck!
