It would not let me screen shot my results and I downloaded it but it says cannot load. So I wrote it down and took a pic.
Hello, I have more news. My diagnosis is neuropathic hand pain with damaged radial and ulnar nerves and also tested positive for fromets. So, I was right, the anesthesia affected those nerves that is why it hurt so bad.
At first my arm from my shoulder to my hand would go completely numb like when your foot falls asleep and can't walk on it. Everyday on and off. Now it is constantly numb all the time...not as intense but it doesn't stop and it is just above my elbow to my finger tips. I have loss of sensation, strength, and over all functuality. Has been almost 6 months now.
They have me taking gabapentin and just started occupational therapy for 6 weeks hoping to calm these nerves down.
I see my PCP in 6 weeks and if not better then she is sending me to her health group neurologist .
The occupational therapist is awesome ...he is going to try ultrasound next visit on Thursday. He did quite a few tests I am attaching pics of those . Thank you so much you are great.
Hello, thank you for your response. This neurologist I only met once virtually and all she said was the EMG was normal and she could give me a referral to a neuro muscular physician. I will go on my chart and screen shot the EMG results and post it ..do you think it could be IV infiltration? Because my arm was fine before this ...and it was the worst pain going in I think it went in my arm wrong. I don't know it is driving me crazy. I will post the results of EMG ..thank you
