Diagnosing Carpal Tunell
Posted: 09-01-06 05:09am

Hi,
hope you can help, doctor suspected I had carpal tunnell, pins & needles in forearm, hand, thumb, and next to fingers along, but not ring or little finger.
It often keeps me awake at night or wakes me up, had cortisone injection 2 months ago which reduced the severity of the pins & needles.
Yesterday had nerve endings test which could not pickup carpal tunnel, anyone else had a negative nerve endings test, but had carpal tunnel.

Yeah, stu4rtparker, Ive had the same problem for years. I had trouble getting a diagnosis for a long time which was real frustrating. But now Ive been told its carpal tunnel & my ortho told me to wear support fir health gloves & wrist body bands. Let me tell you they have worked real well and Im back at work again.
