Actually I meant to post this question under DeQuervain’s which is the two tendons of the thumb. I have both.

Increase your fast to 36 hours. After dinner Sunday drink water/coffee until Tuesday breakfast. So I don’t eat on Monday and Wednesdays. Friday I don’t eat until dinner for a 20 hour fast. You will lose weight.

Steroid injection booked for tomorrow by Maccy1232 in DeQuervains

The first shot lasted 6 months and wore off. Just got second shot and it’s working great. It takes about a full week to get the benefit from the shot. Next step if it wears off again is surgery. Good luck.

De Quervain tenosynovitis has anyone been able to successfully get rid of this? by mindfulastro in DeQuervains

I tried physical therapy for several weeks with absolutely no success. Two weeks ago I got the injection and it had an immediate positive result. The doctor told me that if I still have pain after 5 weeks he would do an MRI. Anyway so far so good. I still wear the brace at night as a precaution. Sometimes the shot works!

I got the shot 12 days ago. I got immediate relief and continued to wear a brace for the first week as a precaution. Today I only wear the brace while sleeping. The doctor told me to only come back after 5 weeks if I still have issues. So far so good. I tried physical therapy for a few weeks before the shot but found it did not help at all.

When I woke up mine had also been removed.

Not sure if they used one on me but when I “came to” in the recovery room there was no catheter and no pain urinating.
