PMR/Carpel-tunnel update

I thought I would update after my visit to the rheumy after all the advice and support I had regarding PMR/Carpel Tunnel. My markers were raised as expected and had a booster injection of Preds The rheumy has agreed for me to raise the preds at a rate I feel comfortable with. The Carpel Tunnel has shown to be severe so am on waiting list to see Surgeon. This won't be for 12 -18 weeks which will give me time to see how I progress. The pain feels easier after booster jab.

Thanks again

Pat
