I am 52 years old and I have had chronic pain in BOTh my hands and wrists extending up the forearm for 2 years.
I have seen physios, reumatolgists, hand specialists, you name it, I have been there.
I have had physio, acupuncture, hand therapy, a carpel tunnel release on my left hand (hopeless) and recently a right side rib ressection.
I have had xrays, bloods, bone scans, vascular studies, and MRI to my thoracic region and this week an MRI on the top part of my neck. The first MRI (performed in OCT 2010) says that I have minor posterior discovertebral spurring extending from c3/4 to c6/7 most pronounced at c6/7 where there is only minimal canal stenosis.
I am at my wits end and cannot function with this pain. Do you have any suggestions here? Thanks Kim
