MRI is good for showing what might be a cause or not, but sometimes a hands on evaluation is needed, or even blood work to check deeper to rule out certain other conditions. If you are just starting to track this down I'm sure dr will explore fully. If not seek out another dr.
If you had the hand issues before the MRI, why wasn't a c spine MRI done at the same time?
But if no hand pain only falling asleep? Could be blood flow issues?
What kind of work did you do or do now?
desk work, very repetitive, overhead?
Some of the upper body sx could be related to posture and uses over long time..

Yes I have had the issues with my hands for a few months now, it could possibly be blood flow issues but I am not sure.
Right now I work as a cashier at a grocery store and I am only on light duty so I am under orders to do no bending or lifting which pretty much limits the actual work that I can do there but the company that I work for has been fair in keeping me working while we wait to find out what is wrong.
