"wrong information for carpal tunnel syndrome"

After initially being reffered to houghton le springto see a surgeon I unfortunately missed my appointment due to a mix up with my mail. I have had extensive nerve conduction tests and was reffered by the consultant with bilateral moderate to severe carpal tunnel syndrome.

In the fracture clinic on friday 14th July I was informed otherwise by another consultant who said I was only diagnosed as mild to moderate.

I said that everyone I had seen said otherwise.

I told the consultant I needed my hands sorted as I was about to set up a business on my own and as a joiner of 40 years my hands being ok were essential. The consultant seemed to mock this fact saying " is this the same business you seem to have been setting up for a while" in a very condascending way. The consultant then told me to hold my hand out and touched my little finger and thumb and asked if I could feel it. I replied yes and they said that in fact I should be able to as the little finger is not affected by carpal ntunnel syndrome. ( I assume this was their ridiculous way to see if I was making up my symptons or why else would you try to catch someone out). I was given two splints and told to come back in three months. something totally irrelevant for my condition and also not even fitted to my hands.
