I severed both thumb extensor tendons a couple of weeks ago, now repaired and immobilised, it hasn't hurt at all but it's going to take plenty of time to be back to normal. So yes, 12 weeks + for you i'm afraid. I dislocated my shoulder years ago, did a lot of damage and that took years to get back to anywhere near normal, taking off a sweaty t shirt required a new technique as i had no push up strength, and i still lack a bit of movement range on that side.
All the best, and a gory pic for you!
