Thanks

Huge thanks for the help I got in the clinic today. In the midst of a pandemic I was seen very promptly. Assessed by lovely, professional person [apologies for having forgotten your name] and injected by Emma. This clinic is a true beacon of excellence.
After a couple of weeks of severe night pain I look forward to some sleep.
Many thanks to Dr Bland for this amazing service

Steroid injection didn’t work

I had a appointment at Canterbury on the 18th January 2021. I had a test and the CTS in my right had is now stage 5. I had a steroid injection and I am still in a lot of pain. I was wondering if I could get the operation as I am not working at the moment. Would it be possible to get put on the waiting list for the operation

Thanks

Severe Pain, Right Wrist and Hand

Dear Jeremy, I'm hoping you can help me as you have so effectively in the past. I've now had severe pain and weakness in my right wrist and hand for three days. This is on top of gout in my fingers and neck problem last December, one effect of which is a loss of feeling in the little and next-along fingers and the little finger side of my right hand. I can hardly use my right hand at all. A G.P. has prescribed Co-codamol but this has little or no effect on the extreme level of pain I'm experiencing. Help please! With kind regards. David
