Ok. I'm thinking I have a combo of tennis/golfers' elbow. Pain getting worse over past couple of months. I've reached the stage where it's waking me at night, it's so painful and I cannot grip/hold and lift even light objects (lifting a kettle or pan, or hoovering is right out with my right hand). Went to GP last week and explained that it's been going on since Nov. He said it must be arthritis and/or Tennis or Golfers as you can't have both at the same time. He told me to take paracetamol. That's it. I'm pretty much losing the use of my right arm....pain into my forearm and shoulder too.
I do have some arthritis and my Rheumatoid Factor's been raised but he said "only a bit" so, keep taking the paracetamol.
What can I do? I'm really struggling. Anyone had this?
