i had surgery on my hand 9 months ago for CTS, i only had a little tingling, and a sharp pain in the wrist when i would just let it drop, but it seems i have the same problems again, my fingers are tingling and i get this deep sharp pain just holding a glass, and i have other pains up to my elbows , and now my wrist and joints crack all the time, when my feet are cold they ache, and i get these weird pains under my arm pits, and under my thighs, my doctor did some blood work and he said the inflamation was normal and it didnt show any arthritis, so he said i might have some strange type of arthritis, im just confused, it seems the doctor doesnt know what he's talking about, anyone have anything like this or know what my symptoms are related too?

My wrist got so bad I had to live in sports braces 24/7 for weeks. The doc did a MRI showing the tendon being swollen and wriggly like a worn out rubberband. After cortizone shots didn't do much good I went to a Rheumatologist. The problem was arthritis and the art. meds have helped the problem. The popping and cracking were sympotoms I still get off and on. The art. is "all over" the body. Had to get on long term pain meds and am currently injecting Enbrel.

Regular x-rays will not show the problem like a MRI will.

Good luck,
PatB
