 Worst Ulnar Nerve Test Results |
The following post from our Muscle Atrophy & Ulnar Nerve Damage page is from a woman who had fusion in her neck and when she woke up her left hand had pain, numbness and tingling. The doctor who did the EMG told her it was the worst ulnar nerve test results that he has ever seen.

I had a fusion in my neck and when I woke up from
surgery my left had ( I am left handed) was hurting
and numb and tingling, felt weak and just didn't
stop. It was right up there with the pain I was
having as far as being annoying and hurting. After 1
year of this pain and numbness I had it checked out
and an EMG and found that I had the worse "Ulnar
nerve results" this Dr, who had done thousands of
them, had ever seen. I eventually had surgery on the
ulnar nerve and was told it would take a long time
for it to recover because nerves recover slower than
anything in the body. Now a year later I still have
the numbness and cannot type like I used to and my
handwriting went in the toilet. I swear this all
happened when they did my neck surgery (which by the
way is failed and the disc above is now herniated) I
am told to return to my neck surgeon but will NOT
after the results from the surgery I had with him
and its total failure and the ulner nerve situation
but am puzzled at what I should do. Do I find
another Surgeon to fix my neck again and hope for
better results (I came out of 1st surgery in 3 or 4
times more pain) or live with what pain I have and
not risk another surgery? I can no longer work and
with my other ailments the pan is constant and only
the pain meds make it tolerable. So I guess besides
'dropping my arm in surgery while I was out' could
my neck surgeon have done something to cause the
ulnar nerve damage? Deb |
