Do any of ya'll have it & what did ya do about it.
:( :( :( :(
I thought I had it - hard to sleep with the pain, hard to hold the steering wheel when I drove ..... lots of the typical Carpal Tunnel symptoms - I told my doctor, she told me to go off the perscription osteoporosis meds she had me on and see if it went away .... YES! It did! Now on the nasel spray - minor side effects, but able to deal with them vs. what was going on :?
Good luck, I hope you can get some relief soon.
Just curious as to what drugs you were taking? All my symptoms started after I was diagnosed with RA and started meds for that. just wondering.....if they could be the culprit!
