Years ago I had carpal tunnel in my wrist from overuse due to my job. My orthopedic dr. Prescribed Celebrex but it tore up my stomach so I asked for an alternative. He sent me to PT and prescribed a wrist brace to wear at night and during the day too, if needed. It held my wrist in the correct position. The PT was just simple exercises, but helped So Much!
As for the neuropathy, I also had the emg testing that showed nothing wrong, so my pinched nerves were the cause of mine. I think the remaining issues both in my feet and in my hands are more pinched nerves, I wish we could go in there with a rotor rooter and clean out all the bone Spurs!
Just another opinion, when testing doesn’t give any answers, don’t think you’re a hypochondriac or crazy. There’s just more searching needed. I had 4 different opinions before finding a doctor who actually listened. One doctor here in my area who is highly regarded, told me not to talk, he was going to be like judge Judy and ask the questions! Btw, he did not show me the MRI report when he met with me, just gave his opinion said it was my SI joints most likely. I’m going on and on but just can’t believe how arrogant some doctors are.
