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.
