Return of Symptoms

Dear Dr Bland, I spoke to you on the phone last week, and as requested I have filled in the on-line symptoms questionnaire. I was diagnosed with Carpal-Tunnel Syndrome last autumn - a score of 2 for my left wrist, and 4 for my right wrist. I had a steroid injection in my right wrist on November 2nd 2010, which worked very well till a couple of weeks ago when symptons began to re-appear. You have kindly arranged an appointment in the K&C Hosp clinic on Sept 1st, but I wll be away that week.Would it be possible to see you one week later? Sorry to be a nuisance. Winston Waller

Just posting to remind you that we have spoken today about the return of my symptoms and that you will be sending me an appointment for repeat tests.

Return of symptoms

Dear Dr Bland

I visited the clinic for an EMG in autumn 2010 and had a steroid injection from Dr V Brown on 20 October. I can't remember my grading on the EMG. Symptoms minimal till April this year when I started riding Whitstable to Canterbury and back every weekday on my electric bike. Symptoms now as severe as previously. Bike only means of personal transport. What do you think I should do?

Many thanks for your advice

Questionaire

Questionaire as completed prior to examination by Dr Bland 20/7/11. May have modified some answers after discussions with him. Being retired I do far more physical work with my hands than in previous employment but could not find a space on the form to say so. nevertheless - exceptional service

Attend clinic app?

Was referred by the doctor to the clinic, but i completed questionaire and scored 1.8. Do i still need to attend clinic with such a low score. Don't want to be a time waster!

Pregnant with carpal tunnel

Hello

I've been to Canterbury twice before during my last pregnancy and following it. I have had steroid injections at a clinic in Faversham which have resulted in my symptoms disappearing. I am pregnant with my second child and the symptoms have returned quite severely in my right hand (and did from an early point in the pregnancy). I'm wearing a splint at night which is helping me to sleep better but it does seem to be getting worse. I'd like another steroid injection as soon as possible if I can. I am 23 weeks pregnant. Help!

Operation

Good morning
I should like to go ahead with the operation on my right wrist as soon as possible.
How soon after this operation can you correct the left wrist?.
Will I be able to drive within a week of the surgery?.
Regards Tony Biddle
