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

[Tizz]

Well I went back to the Dr today and he
read the results of the EMG which I already knew said that
they see NO Carpal Tunnel. I told the Dr. that I had heard
tht sometimes the results show negative on the very 1st EMG
and he didn't have alot to say about that etc. At any rate,today
my right ring finger is disfigured and swelled even more then before
and its moving right on up my finger to my nail.

I mentioned to the Dr. that I had been reading and found
"Cubital Tunnel Syndrome" and "Medial Epicondylitis" and that alot
of the symptoms are exactly what I have. So I asked him what
he thought,there again,he didn't say alot.

He has now referred me to an Ortho Hand Dr and again I will have
to wait and see if that appointment gets approved once the AIG
adjuster hears that they say NO Carpal Tunnel in my hand.

Im just soooooo frustrated and while we are playing this game,my
hand/fingers are getting worse with no relief in sight. I did get
steroids today since nothing else is helping with the swelling.
But im just wondering how long its going to take for them to figure
out whats wrong with my hand etc.
