First I was diagnosed possibly with carpal tunnel when they did their testing for that things didn’t look like it was carpal tunnel so then I was referred to rheumatology at the time things seem to be going in that direction I started taking all the medication and I was able to get back to work but seven months into work a month or two in that timeframe my hand condition of swelling and pain continued on and off to the point where I had to stop work again now the Rheumatologist is thinking that this could be complex regional pain syndrome but she’s not 100% sure my primary doctor just put me on the gabapentin I’ve been on it for a few days now and have seen some small changes in my hand and the condition but I have good days and I have bad days I also have some mental issues that I am taking care of by communicating with a counselor nobody seems to know what is going on but now they’re coming to a conclusion that I need a neurologist I have been misdiagnosed too many times and I’ve been dealing with this for a year and unfortunately it has kept me from working if anybody knows or has similar issues of swelling pain warmth and nerve pinching sensations you know if there’s anything that you have gone through that might be able to give me some answers that would be great thank you
