I have given my answers as im not happy with the lack of information i was given regarding cortisone injections for carpal tunnal, i came to appointment they told me they giving me them to help, i felt alot of pain when injected into my left hand excruciating pain and the dr didnt stop carried on. Im now a week on have no feeling in my left middle finger down into my palm i have pains worse then before my hand is now useless and with 3 children this is a harder task then before. I have been told by rheumatology to go back to gp to get reffered to orthopaedic to opereate. Feel like theve dont the damage and now somebody else has to fix it.

Suggested improvements
Better communication, better sympathy. I have been left partially paralysed in my left hand and there is no apology or sympathy from the hospital i think its discusting.
