Symptom Questionnaire

Hi. I have just completed my Symptom Questionnaire - Number 222110

Symptom questionnaire completed

I have completed my questionnaire

Worsening but is it all related to CTS?

Good Afternoon. A year on and post injection of quite some time ago, I am still suffering the twanging sensation in my right hand particularly if rotating my hand I.e. cooking, brushing my teeth, styling etc. My hand, wrist and arm ache/hurt, sometimes and increasingly, enough to take co-codamol. For some time now, my elbow has been affected and I am finding it painful to straighten my arm, reach for something and experience pain when picking up the smallest thing. The pain is on the inside of my arm also.

Recent Steroid Injection

Having suffered symptoms of carpel tunnel for about a year starting with pin & needles and developing into pain and stiffness I was referred to Dr Bland
The outcome of our meeting was to either wait for a Operation or have steroid injections (both wrists) I was immediately given an appointment and the process was excellent quick painless and I was taken care of.

Steroid Injection

Hi Guys
Just like to say the Steroid injection I had during the summer seems to have made a tremendous improvement.

So far so good

Thank you and many thanks

Carpal Tunnel

My arms and hands tingle constantly throughout the day and night , however during the night I wake up in agony several times during the nightand my hands feel as if they are on fire. Is there anything I can do to ease this and please can I have an appointment to see someone as the pain is unbearable.

Results

Dear Dr Bland,

Following my test and injections on 27th August I am pleased to say there has been no pain from the injections and a noticeable reduction in symptoms in the few days since.
Could I have my test results please ? I forgot to ask for them on the day and would like to update My CTS .

Kind regards

Keith Chopping
