Re: Questions - CMT Arms, Elbow & Ulnar Nerve

January 9, 2006

I hope you get a second opinion because no one not even a doctor will be able to

predict how your arms and hands will be effected in the future. My hands are

stronger now then they were 2 yeas ago. I take Vitamin C that has helped me to

gain strength so it has not been on my own but just to say no one could have

told me I would be stronger now then 2 years ago.

Hi Rob,

I too had ulnar nerve compression. I can't believe your doc told you that

relieving the compression wasn't worth it! It would seem to me that if you got

any time at all from the relief it would be worth it.

Anyway, I hd my ulnar nerves relocated in both arms. The strength in my hands

aand lower arms has improved enormously and I cna do things like open jars that

I haven't been able to do for years. So get a really good hand and arm guy to do

the surgery.

Good luck

Rob,

I have found a chiropractor is the solution to the pain/fatigue your dealing

with. Cold packs and heat may help until you get to see one. Good Luck in the

outcome.
