I didn't even know I had this till last week when I saw my dr but looking on different sites on cts I had the warning signs for a long time as for no reason my fingers would go numb and it would take a while for the feeling to come back,
anyway the pain started last week in my right arm and hand and I had never felt pain so bad and such a weaknes in my hand and arm that it was hard to carry on at work ( i work as a cook) I have been crying with the pain, just wondered if this extreme pain was a normal thing with cts??? My doctor sent me for an xray and wants to inject my hand when he gets the results of the xray so he will know where is the best place to give the injection. It would be great to hear from someone Posted on 01/22/09, 01:01 pm |

Hi there,
I'm sorry to say that there could be lots of pain. I had pain in my wrist plus numbness in some fingers and also pain in my right elbow. I could not brush my teeth and had really time sleeping due to the pain. I'm against all drugs so I didn't get the shots nor painkillers. Lucky enough, a good friend who had ankylosing spondylitis got well from using some natural products from Japan, told me to purchase some to try. It's the most natural thing I could find that really help with the pain. I can work on the computer more than 8 hours a day now without any problem. I can't thank enough for the angel who had saved me. Best of luck to you
