Dear Dr Bland.

Look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards
carpal-tunnel symptom questionnaire
Dr Bland i have completed the symptom questionnaire. I wasn't given a reference number at the end but there was a reference number in the update my details section. I'm not sure if it is a previous one as i completed this questionnaire a couple of years ago. EKH117048H
Completed new test and would like an appointment please
Hi Jeremy
My right hand feels like someone has jumped on it most of the night. I'm not sleeping more than half an hour before the pain kicks in. I am finding making a fist difficult now and can't rely on my right hand at all for carrying out tasks.
Cubical tunnel syndrome
Hi I have logged on completed the questionnaire as requested by my GP. I note the questions more related to wrist problems mine are more in my elbow and forearm and I get numb little and ring finger only. I don’t know if I have Cubital or Carpal syndrome maybe? Please can I be considered for an appointment.
Advice please
Hello I came and had nerve conduction tests in December and was told to contact the neurology department to ask them to give you permission to treat me, as they had referred me. I did this before Christmas but haven’t heard anything. Would you be able to check whether this is all ok as my arm is keeping me awake at night! Also I had an appointment with Mr James about a problem with my hand and he said he wanted to refer me back to you for nerve conduction tests on my ulnar nerve. Would it be possible to also check whether this has come through?
New injection please
Hello,
It’s that time of year again where I’m due an injection in my wrist…. Can I please book in for an appointment?
I’m in Ashford and have a newborn so late morning/ afternoon is easiest for me
Thanks in advance, Lou
Next Steps after questionnaire - 225845
My ID is 225845.
I called my drs today regarding pain with my CTS. They advised me to fill in the questionnaire on this site. (Which I have just done).
I was wondering what is the next steps for receiving help with CTS as it dragging me down with sleepless nights and constant pain.
I live in Folkestone and wonder if I am in catchment area?
Also I have been suffering with CTS 15+ years and my old faithful splint is starting to see better days and I was wondering the best place to get a replacement?
Hope to hear from you soon
Ella
questionnaire completed
For the record: the symptoms recorded in today's questionnaire are mild compared to those experienced three months ago. An accumulation of activities exacerbated the numbness in my left hand and fingers I swim on a regular basis; up to three times a week. In November I was unable to complete my normal number of lengths I first experienced numbness in my left hand whilst swimming a couple of years ago. Recent X rays show I have severe subluxation degeneration in cervical spine - with retrolisthesis at C3
Steroid injection
Dear Dr Jeremy,
I’ve just done a new severity test and would like to try steroid injections again. Please let me know if this is possible and the availability.
Kind regards

New questionnaire
Afternoon Dr Bland.
I've done an updated questionnaire as GP requested due to pain in both wrists have got considerably worse especially during the day. My GP has put me on Amitriptyline for the pain . I'm using splints during the night and have started compression gloves for the day to try and relieve the pain.
Many thanks
