Successful treatment

I am one happy person..... within 12 hours of my steroid injections I am pain free....I cannot thank you enough, Dr Bland

Reoccurrence of symptoms

Hi Dr Bland,

I've noticed my symptoms creeping back after my steroid injection.
This is most noticeable after playing guitar for an hour or two.

Can I get another injection?

Thanks for all you do!

Recurrence of symptoms

Hi,

I wear a splint on my right hand at night. In recent months I have been experiencing numbers and tingling in my right hand, particularly when driving. I'm aware that the splint is abit loose having stretched over time. Please can you suggest how I should proceed from here? Many thanks.

CTS Update By Austin

Hello Dr Bland, Many thanks for your help with the login problem. This is my six monthly update. My condition remains very much the same. I continue to have mild symptoms, especially numbness when cycling and on the laptop. These are manageable and do not impact too much on my life. Might I suggest that I could come for a test in six months time (late February 2022)? At that time you could possibly advise me whether to continue with the six monthly updates or switch to annually. Kind regards

I visited my GP last Tuesday, completed the referral and had contact from Jeremy on the Thursday, all of which is amazing service. The pain and discomfort in my hand and arm has increased rapidly in the last week however and I am struggling to get any relief in any position at all. I wear a splint and take pain killers but is there anything else I can do until I get treatment to alleviate the pain?
