    Maybe you could be ambi-keyboardish.

    Or just identify as a lefty and it will be true.

    Be well, and best wishes for a speedy recovery

    But I don't understand the problem, I only use one finger on each hand to type on a keyboard (I'm improving). All my thumbs do is hit the space bar otherwise. On a iPad or phone I've devolved back to hunt and peck with a single finger

    All I use are the index fingers. Thumb sneaks in there occasionally.

    Expecting everything will go well for you. A stylus works wonders when a finger can’t.

    On my right hand the thumb is on the left. On my left hand the thumb is on the right. Make sure the doctor knows which thumb to work on.
    And get well soon.

    It went well. No big bandage and no splint. And no computer restrictions. Shooting restriction 22 only for now. I had to ask lol. Numbing wearing off hurts some and some swelling. Im going to ice it shortly

    I have a set back. I have a infection. I went to the er last night. They ran an IV antibiotic. And gave a me a prescription for keflex. Hopefully it kicks in soon. My right hand and forearm is pretty puffed up.
