In addition, I have noticed a thenar shrinkage in my right hand (Doctors say that it is just a matter of asymmetry). I have already seen over 20 doctors and they say that I have nothing. In addition, all conducted exams were clean (Cervical Spine, Brain and Brachial Plexus RMI; Arms and Legs ENMG; Lombar Punction; Cervical Spine RX).

I really do not know what to do. I cannot just sit and watch thenar atrophy progressing.

Could some suggest me anything?
Sorry to hear of ur problem. Iknow the Dr frustration thing.
If I recall the thenar muscle is on the inside of thumb on palm side. I think this happens with carpal T. Compression. Have u seen a Hand specialist? Someone who treats c.t. and hand arthritis. Your other sx could be related to tos. U really. Need a specialist in tos. Start searching n doing ur homework in ur area. Don't give up! U will find answers eventually. For some of us here it has taken yrs.
Good luck!



yrs.
