Chronic Wrist pain...help!!

[alophysio]

hi,

I am glad that the symptoms and the "story" fit each other.

I would take an educated guess and say that you have some pretty clear signs of thoracic spine trouble and you need to find someone who can help you improve the way that it all coordinates.

if you email [email protected], they might know of someone in your area who can help - they are in my opinion the world's experts in thoracic spine care and treatment. Otherwise keep us posted.

Cheers

Finally almost 1 year and I have an answer! Had my second opinion appointment today and am really lucky to have a doctor that sat down and listened to me & my symptoms. I failed a test miserably where my hands were up like a football style goal post, head looking at ceiling & while opening & closing hands. Within 15 seconds my right hand was ghost white & my wrist didn't have a pulse. My arm also felt almost fully tingly & felt like 3 lbs. heavier. (Yup that's the blood that's stuck there) Thoracic outlet syndrome is my official d/x. Now I have at least 6 months physical therapy ahead of me, praying that it solves the issue. You nailed it...

In a way this brings tears to my eyes to finally know what is wrong with me & that I can finally start to get better because my case isn't pretty and it hurts more than ever.
