I had surgery called CMC Arthroplasty on my hand by Dr. Combs to eliminate pain. But not only I have pain now, in addition to my hand shaking uncontrollably!!!!  He sent me to a Neurologist who basically recommended anther surgery .... When I tried to go back to Dr. Combs, I was told that "...we can't do anything for you and recommend you go to The Indy Hand specialists..."  Really,  you messed up my hand, leave me with pain and uncontrollable shaking and recommend a hand specialist? WOW!
