Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 80 years old. I have neuropathy and I am taking 600 mg of neurontin/gapapintin every day at bed time. I need surgery for trigger finger and carpal tunnel. The doctor says the surgery results may or may not help me because I also have osteopourosis and osteoarthritis in my hands which is quite advanced in my thumbs. I cannot decide whether or not to have this surgery. (This is a question - grimace)
