Thanks for the response. I basically have no idea what kind of doctor to seek out at all. I have multiple things going on but feel like they are all connected. I have had the numbness since I can remember but just recently had a bunch of things begin all within a month of each other that seemed unrelated at first and to occur for no reason.

I have not had a nerve conduction study. All I have had was an ultrasound on each elbow, done at a rheumatologist so office. I have seen a GP, urgent care, emergency room, and rheumatologist. It was the ER who I went to when I could no longer move my neck and had severe pressure and stiffness in my chest and back with burning pain that they sent me to a rheumatologist. Like I said no one believed I had anything wrong despite having a golf ball sized swelling in my elbow. I am glad I at least had swelling there because otherwise I would have never even gotten the ultrasound, even though I had to go to multiple doctors just to get that. The rheumatologist just said to go to a sports medicine doctor to have my one elbow fixed, it has ligament damage in addition to the nerve dislocation.
