I have elbow pain at nite too. But, then, I have arthritis all over my body, so who knows. Had my carpal tunnel surgery 2 years into TM. Don’t know the reason for it, but surgery sure took care of it. Janice

The neurologist says it sounds like carpal tunnel. The ortho surgeon says it's not. I can type now, but couldn't 7 months ago. Still can't hold a pen much. EMG shows diffuse slowing of conduction to all nerves leading to the hands. The surgeon told me surgery wouldn't improve this. It's interesting that some days are better than others. I have also been trying the arthritis gloves which seem to help. The elbow pain at night is pretty bad though. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC: molokai...@gmail.com; tmic-list@eskimo.com From: skle...@cox.net Subject: Re: [TMIC] No mail Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2012 07:04:19 -0700 To: xbeecla...@gmail.com i don't know which came first tm or carpal tunnel!

After TM hit me, it left me with disfigured hands – I lost the ability of the tendons to bend or lift the fingers of my right hand. I had two surgeries where the doctor was able to make use of lesser tendons to take over for the damaged ones. One finger still doesn’t bend like normal and I have limited grip ability, but the end result is so much better than before the surgery. Hope your surgery was successful and your fingers will be able to fly over the keyboard.
