Is Tennis Elbow And Menopause Related? Posted: 06-06-04 03:23am
I have a report from an orthopaedic
specialist acting for an insurance co.
Stating that a 48 year old's tennis elbow
(lateral epicondylitis) is due to
menopause, not her work as a cleaner. Is
this a possibility?

The doctor is working for the insurance
company so they will say anything not to
pay out money. See if you can get a
second opinion. I am just a layperson,
and I do not think they are related. I
have gone thru menopause and have had no
problems like that. You are just being
snowed. Good luck.
