I did see an orthopedic assistant because the doctor was months out. He ran blood test which came back negative for lupus and RA. He also took X-rays of my hands and an Emg which came back negative for carpal tunnel. He said he didn't know what was wrong, gave me a shot of cortisone in each arm and said he was going to refer me to a rheumatologist.
My husband recently had neck surgery by an neurosurgeon, so he said I should cut to the chase and see him. I'm not sure if this is jumping the gun.
