I just got word back from my nerve conduction that I have median nerve slowing. So, they are saying my left arm troubles are from carpal tunnel.
I didn't get to talk to the doc, he just left it in a message on my voice mail because I cancelled my follow-up appt, but wants me to call him back. So, I'm trying to figure out whether all of my arm sx make sense as carpal tunnel so that I can ask him the right questions. I figured that since this is such a common problem that someone on here has to have this problem and might be able to help me sort this out. My biggest issue is really more up in my bicep and shoulder area. I always thought carpal tunnel was more of a wrist / hand issue. I do have problems there and am certain that there is a carpal tunnel problem. However, the worst part of this is the repeated sudden and quite painful tightening of my bicep muscle that happens all through the day whenever I use the arm too much. Can that be a part of carpal tunnel, too. Or, is it a separate problem?
