Default What to do in the meantime about wasting muscles and nerve pain?

I'm still undiagnosed for all practical purposes, so maybe I don't have PN but something else, maybe TOS.

Anyway: before my appointment with the neurologists at the university hospital here, which is due in 10 days, I wonder what I can do about my symptoms.

Those are: severe muscle wasting in both hands up to the elbows, cannot lift both thumbs, and pain, sometimes from stretching nerves (how to describe it? The nerves are just stretching and my fingers are moving involuntarily, or maybe nerves + tendons are doing it? Anyway, it's painful and scary. Those are not fasciculations, it's just something flexing and expanding under my skin. Not all the time, gratefully, but often enough to be scary. And another kind of pain, I believe muscle pain.

I take B12 methyl form, B1 300 mg, B complex and magnesium 120 mg (L-aspartate hydrochloride).

How to stop my hands from wasting? I believe I should be in a hospital now, it was just difficult to get that appointment.
