Hi
Today is the first of my many appointments. I have an EMG test (nerve conduction) on my arm/hand to test for carpel tunnel. Mr NB is accompanying me today, so at least I will have some company and a chauffeur!
Any pocket dwellers available are very welcome x

    Good luck, NB.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Oh, I remember those tests. :( That's why I didn't come along - I utterly disgraced myself when mine were done, I blubbed like a three-year-old. :oops: I apologise but at least Mr NB and the others were there. I'll do better on the next appt! DD

    Hi NB,

    Sorry I'm late to this too. It sounds a bit scary, from reading DD's post above. I promise to be in your pocket for all your other appointments, just in case I'm late again :)

    Best wishes,
    Phee
    PsA (psoriatic arthritis) and other things since 1990. Happy to help when I can :-)

    Hi
    Thankyou everybody for your support.
    DD-It was a very weird and uncomfortable sensation, but I didn`t cry! The technicians were very nice and kept me talking to distract me. My results will go to the Neurologist and my GP but they mentioned that there was some `weakness` more around my little fingers, so not typical of carpal Tunnel. I think it is down to all the crutches use and damage to nerves in my wrists and hands.
    I am off out for lunch with a friend, who is picking me up soon. But this afternoon I have a meeting with the Union man again to talk about work. :roll: I am not sleeping worrying about it all and feel sick most of the time. I wish someone could just `fix` it all for me!!
    Have a lovely day all xx
    Pocket duties No 2 tomorrow!!

    Yup, it was the weirdness etc that truly got to me (it was a long walk to the department and pain was through the roof) so the fizzing and twitching on top of that did not help. As I said, I behaved badly. :oops: I am glad you coped better than me - I think everyone who has had these done has. :oops: DD
