I see the hand surgeon Monday for the left hand.
My family doctor made this appointment due to the carpal tunnel and problems with the thumb joint.
I was told 07 I need surgery of the thumb joint, and learned earlier this month I have moderate carpal tunnel and muscle loss of the left hand.
I also have carpal tunnel of the right hand, we wait the judge's decision if the right hand is added to wc. (No longer can I write with the right hand)
Doctor says if I don't have surgery soon I will not regain what I have lost.
I will update what the surgeon says on Monday.
Good luck my friend....you have had your fair share of bologna its time for some good news
I Hope Your Appt. Goes Well, and Please Keep Us Informed!!
Thank you Still In Limbo & Jayne
My attorney tells me the carpal tunnel of the left hand could be added as an overuse injury, although I have decided to pay for treatment on my own and not to "mess with" adding this to my claim.
My doctor says I am to the point of permanently loosing the use of my hand.
Bummer,
I hope all goes well for you on Monday. I also see the neurosurgeon on Monday regarding the rewsults of the myelo/ct scan. We both need a bit of good luck for Monday. We just have to hang in there my friend. Love ya and praying for ya!

Thanks MJC and I do wish you well with your visit Monday.
I will do what I can to get out of surgery on the left hand, just don't want to go there.
I am more worried about the right hand. I can type a little but find it very painful to write, can't do much more then sign my name.
MJC and Bummer prayers going up for both of you that thing will have good results Monday.
You are in my Prayers BK...i hope you get the help you need.
Good Luck tomorrow my friend!

Well I am scheduled for carpal tunnel surgery of the left hand next Tuesday.
That is unless I change my mind, and I may..........
The appointment today was for for the left hand but the doctor wanted to compare the left to the right hand.
After he compared hands he wanted to schedule me for the right hand next week.
He said it is worse then the left hand and needs surgery now.
Told him I can't do anything on the right hand until the judge makes a decision.
Think I will call my attorney and see if there is any word from the judge.
