Hey Lynch,

Your symptoms sounds very similar to mine just minus the whole crash part. I was first told cubital tunnel, then carpal, etc..

Have you tried any physical therapy? What i found was i had very tense Scalene muscles and pronator muscles resulting in mechanical problems due to scar tissue etc..
The therapy that gives me instant relief is Active Release Techniques along with Graston tools. they work to break down the scar tissue and release any entraped nerves. IT hurts like hell but it works. There must be a massage therapist or chiropractor that specializes in soft tissue therapy and nerve entrapment in your area.
