Re: Help... QUESTION ABOUT BACK PAIN & LEG PAIN AND NUMBNESS IN HANDS

Hello Cindy, I don't know if numbness in the hands and endo have anything to do with each other. Don't think so, but not sure.

Quite a few years back I was having trouble with my hands going numb. They thought it was Carpal Tunnel. So after jumping through all of the L&I hoops and Doctor's(not necessarily with my best intrests at heart) not listening to me tell them where exactly in my back it was. Their own tests proved it not to be Carpal Tunnel. But that's what they still wanted to treat me for. I suffered for about 2 more year's of feeling like crap and not being able to feel my hands most of the time. Then I was directed to a really good Chiropractor who really helped me turn things around. If you think about it, every thing is connected to your back. It might even help with some of your other issue's.

Massage has really helped me too. My sister was going to school for it. So I let her practice all the new stuff she learned on me.

I totally understand your pain, just in a little different way. Hope you feel better soon.
