When you get in to the dr, will that mean you can step right into a series of tests/specialists/diagnosis, or will there be a bunch of waiting for that process too?

I bought a cheesy little elbow brace and although the straps seemed to squeeze something in my arm above my elbow, the heat felt good. On me, heat was better than cold.

Two different drs gave me scrips for naprosen..that seems to be the favored standard med.

The sleeping position I had the best luck with was with my hand flat on the top of my leg..elbow relaxed, straightish.
My neurologist told me to sleep with good posture.

I went through a series of drs before ending up getting to see the ones that are practical for this. I asked every doctor about the chances of permanent damage (and how to avoid it) By the time I was seeing specialists, they seemed to agree that I should go ahead and use my hand/arm. Some said I should be careful not to fatigue it, some said to use it but stop when it started to hurt.
The most recent one said I could go ahead and use it..no restrictions.
