Many symptons No diagnosis yet

[sagil]

I have been going to Doctors since June 8 of this year. I am a 49 year old female. It started with hand pain and wrist pain the end of May. Then in June my joints of my index and middle finger on right hand began to swell and get very red and painful. Doctors took blood tests, xrays, and MRI's. Told me I have carpal tunnel and arthritis, in wrist, shoulder and hands. Went to a hand specialist in Aug. he gave me a steroid shot in the worst knuckle of right hand and it made me sick for 6 hours, and no improvement. So went back to my doctor took a test for RA again and thyroid came back negative. Had to go to ER when not able to be seen by my doctor for extremes swelling of fingers and joints, gave me Vicodin. I am getting no answers to my problems. I have been off work for over 30 days. Please advise me if you have ANY ideas what this could be? Thanks. sgil

I was going to suggest the same thing.  All my referred pain diminishes greatly when I get adjusted by my chiropractor.  This includes the extremeties, such as the hands and feet.  Chiropractors can help with adjustments meant for the hands and wrists.  My chiropractor has even helped with my TMJ dysfunction.  Like SassyLassie says, you have nothing to lose but pain.

Hello Sagil~It appears to me that you could possibly have some mis-alignment of vertebrae in your spine and it is pressing on nerves that goes to your hands and wrist. I would see a chiropractor for this, I see one and he really helps. Since all your tests have ruled out serious problems and the docs can not seem to help, you have nothing to loose but pain if you try this.

Good luck
