[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 458497, member: 21536"] Thanks BigTerp. That is good info and confirms what I've heard. My P/T person also said I need the nerve study and didn't understand why my Orthopedic Doc didn't order one. I'm following up on that. My orthopedic doc also warned me that the cortisone injections may or may not work. Not a great endorsement. The P/T exercises I was given help a lot but are only temporary relief. The P/T person also explained that the exercises would help with pain but are not a cure. I wear a wrist brace every night and sometimes during the day. I was diagnosed with the carpel tunnel (& minor arthritis in the joint) over a year ago. Diagnosis was based on x-rays & symptoms. Before this, I would experience flare-ups about once every couple of weeks and they would last no more than a day. This most recent flare up made my hand basically useless for about a week. Unfortunately I was out of the country and wasn't able to see my Doc until I returned. It is much better but is still lingering. I guess I would describe it as "bothersome" at this point. Anyway, thanks again. I guess we all get some knocks and dings as we get older, and I actually have little to really complain about compared to some others. At least I can now hook up the boat trailer and get out fishing, so life if good! [/QUOTE]
