Carpal Tunnel Surgery

I am dictating this as I went to have a small operation on my right hand this morning with local anaesthetic. The huge bandage stays on for two days and the stitches will come out in two weeks. I guess I won't be doing much blipping until then so I shall take a break. I'm looking forward to being able to play my flute without my hand going numb. It's not particularly painful at the moment I've taken some pills.
