Help Still Searching for Answers

Dear mridoc,
Thank you for offering help to us. Medical descriptions are so hard to understand. I have had questions about my Intra articular MRI done about a year and a half ago. I have asked what it means, but have not received a clear definition so I can understand what is going on with my wrist. Could you please explain what this means? There is a small amount of bony edema in the ulnar volar aspect of the triquetrum. Cartilage thinning is present at the intersection of the lunate, triquetrum, capitate, and hamate in the mid carpal row. A small tear of the proximal surface of the lunotriquetral ligament. I also have a cyst in the lunate measuring 7x5 mm with mild surrounding edema. Capsular injury
I do not have pain at the lunate. I do have a lot of pain at the pisiform and below. I went to one surgeon that said there is nothing to do. Another surgeon said take out the cyst. Would the pain near the pisiform have to do with the cyst, tear, bony edema, or cartilage thinning. That is the million dollar question, and the confusion that I have, on how to fix it. Now I have recently been diagnosted with CRPS.
It is hard to know what to do, if anything.......... Thank you, and now maybe I can let it go
