nic - i would go back to the Drs..! My SIL had it while PG and now she still has it.. she needs to now have an operation on it... if you leave it too long, you'll loose feeling and you wont be able to get it back! My FIL has same issue, he left it and now one of his hands is so bad that he doesn't feel anything anymore, while the other one aches... he can't lift or hold anything with a little weight to it anymore! I don't mean to scare you , but you should get it checked out ASAP!
