I have been wearing wrist splints and elbow splints turned backwards to kind of make me think when bending my arms. As crazy as it may sound, the pinched nerves in both elbows and wrists have been the most debilitating out of all the messed up things I have grown accustomed to.. I suggested physical therapy and I went for my evaluation yesterday. They actually seem very promising (and kind of believable). They are convinced that I will be able to raise my arms up again and possibly get some strength back. My expectations are low, I just want to keep trying and fighting. At first the pain would come and go, but my arms have been steady bad for over a month and getting worse. I should have mentioned that I wear all four splints at night and during the day when it's very bad. I found that the ace-type wraps made me scream out in the night quite fiercely. The wrist brace with the velcro works best for me. Sorry this is long winded, it's a topic on my mind at all times right now and it has taken me a very long time to find some kind of hope in this area. I have a bulging disc in my neck and that may or may not play a role in the capital and carpel tunnel. I am going with an anti-inflammatory epidural in my neck and physical therapy. Who knows. All I can say is that it took a long time to find anyone that wanted to come near me with the shape I am in physically right now; maybe it will be worth the wait. Best of luck, Jon
