I've got chronic tendonitis in my right wrist. Had problems for years. Snapping, popping, pins & needles, pain and all that fun stuff. I've always managed to deal with the flairups, I wear a brace at work, and have a steady supply of Ibuprofin. Lately, it's been worse, I've already been out on short term disability once this year because of it.
Well. . .my Dr sends me off to a specialist. The specialist pokes my hand with a needle for a few minutes, then tells me he wants me to go through an MRI and a nerve conductivity test. . .and possible SURGERY!!! (he said something about decreased sensitivity and reaction in my hand) This is why I avoided seeing a specialist.
I know I should go through all this. . .but I don't wanna! I don't like the idea of being cut open and having somebody poking around inside my wrist. :bigcry:
I've got the tests in a couple of weeks. . .then a little over a month before I see the specialist again and find out for sure. . . ug. . . Gonna be a fun wait. . .
