Updated questionnaire

Good evening I have completed an updated questionnaire. It’s come around again to symptoms starting to affect my daily activities especially RH numbness Thanks

Questionnaire completed

Hi

Recently put a new questionnaire up

Right hand is a bit of a nightmare. Numbness is the big problem, painful but not sure all that is relevant. Dropping things again

Previous surgery

Beginning of September I had surgery on my right hand.

The hand itself feels much worse and I'm unable to do many simple activities activities such as opening bottles or jars.

Doing things are still very painful and the numbness has become worse in my 3 middle fingers.

The Birchington Medical Centre has asked me to contact you with regard to pain I experience in my right hand.

I have taken the diagnosis test which produced a 98% score for CTS.

Would it be possible to have a steroid injection to ease the symptoms please.

Kind Regards

Update from steroid injection approx 6 weeks ago

Hello
I do not feel that the injection has done much to improve the carpel tunnel in my left hand.
The numbness is still there on a permanent basis and i find that as soon as i use my left hand (my dominant hand) the tingling and numbness and burning sensation gets worse much quicker than it did previously.
I don't know whether it would be better to have the operation?
I look forward to hearing from you.

Delighted with the treatment I have had

I just wanted to say a big thank you to the team for the treatment you have given me. Just under a year ago you told me that my CTS was grade 5 in my right hand and grade 6 in my left and that I needed treatment. I have now had decompression in both wrists, and, even though you told me I may get little or no relief in my left hand as it was so bad, I am pleased to say that I am now symptom free in both hands. The first time in decades!
The marks from the surgery are barely visible, it was all so worth it! Thanks again to the team, your expertise and the speed of your treatment.

Questionnaire has been completed

New appointment please

Good morning, Dr Bland

Can you please arrange an appointment for a new nerve conduction test and injection as soon as possible please. I have had very little sleep over the last 3 weeks and no sleep for the last 2 nights. My Left-hand swells overnight to the point i cannot close my hand. I hope to arrange an operation with you in January when my holiday entitlement is renewed. I have completed a new severity test.

Thank you

new appointment

Hi was wondering if I could have a nerve conduction test on my left wrist and a steroid injection as bad morning numbness if the hand has sadly returned which makes driving very hard.
many thanks

Waiting for referral

Hi, I have filled in the questionnaire and forwarded via this website email last week. I was wondering how long does it take to hear from anyone about appointments or referrals? There was no email to confirm whether it went through or not.
