Carpal Tunnel/Repetitive Stress Syndrome in TN-Workers Comp Issue

RE: Carpal Tunnel/Repetitive Stress Syndrome in TN-Workers Comp Issue
Thankyou all for your thoughts etc.I am sorry
you are all suffering so much and mine has just started.

I was given a Steroid dose pack at the Dr yesterday because the
Meloxicam wasn't helping with anything. Im not sure what the steroids
will do.

I have been on restricted duty since Jan 15th and in a Brace. My
job has NO problem with me being on restricted use,But NO one
wants to pick up the slack even just a little to help my job be
easier. I am a receptionist in a lab but I also input paperwork into
a pc after I remove all the staples which is the reason im even here.

When I 1st went to work with the restriction's,My boss emailed a
few supervisor's and told them they woud need to help that I couldn't
use my right hand at all!! Well no one helped and my work started getting behind so I went back to using my right hand despite the
pain and swelling. I can't do my job left handed and lord knows I have
tried but it just doesn't work for me. So today I used my left as
much as I could but switched back to my right because I can't get
backed up.

Ok since I have had the EMG and they are showing No CTunnel,
what is a NVC test and how does it work in finding out if you
have a problem??? No one has mentioned that test to me or
any others. Im now waiting to see if I will be allowed to see
the Ortho Hand Dr which im curious as to what he may find etc.

Anyway, I really appreciate all the help and input. You ppl are great!!
