A month on after steroid injection......
Been suffering CT for two years since the birth of my son. Finally got diagnosed properly and went for the steroid injection a month ago - it's worked wonderfully and I can now sleep comfortably without my wrist splint! I occasionally suffer a slight tingling but this is easily shaken off.
So impressed and relieved it worked for me!
Hi , it’s been a few years since my steroid injections but I have noticed the CT coming back gradually - can’t even hold a phone without the tingling on numb hands , affecting sleep etc how do I go about getting another injection? I hear the gp waiting list is terribly long.....
Thanks in advance , Lou
No need to go back through GP. We can just see you again and deal with it. I'll schedule an appointment when I get in to the office tomorrow. JB
Thank you so much - we have moved since - how do I update my address details?
email me the new address (no need to advertise it on here) and I'll update it. JB
Hi, it’s been a week since my most recent steroid injection and wanted to post that all’s well, had no trouble at all and it’s working wonderfully. I promised the lovely Dr (Katie?) who issued the injection that I’d give an update after a week. On a side note - wanted to say how lovely she was and that I haven’t even bruised! So thanks again , Lou .
Thank you for the update. I'm glad to hear that your symptoms are improving. Do stay in touch and let us know how you are getting on in about 5 weeks. Emma
Thanks for the follow-up information. As usual it is encouraging to hear from patients who are doing well as well as those who have problems. There is of course quite a high chance that the problem will recur at some point but all you need to do when it does is contact me. JB
