Hi all...
For numerous months all (or most) of my finger tips on both hands had been slightly numb off and on. Then in early Dec. my index, middle and ring finger went completely numb on my right hand (middle finger was totally numb and the other two numb on the inside surfaces).
It got so bad that my middle finger felt like it had tight band aids on when I'd bend it... very tight and hard to bend all the way. Numbness and pain and electric shocks I was experiencing.
It, however, has been getting better over the past couple weeks: My ring finger is almost normal and the other two are a lot better. Those were my only hand symptoms.
I saw my Neurologist last week. She wants me to go for a test to make sure it's not Carpel Tunnel. I really don't want to go... I don't have a car and getting around is very difficult but I do want to make sure it's not CT.
Does CT just start going away like MS symptoms can do? If my fingers are getting better than how could it be CT?
Thanks a lot for any help/info.
