I was just diagnosed with it yesterday. Does anyone have any experience with it?

No experience, but there was a bit of info online. Any idea what stage? Did your doctor give you an idea of what treatment options you have?

It's very early, probably about a month since the pain started. Saw my pcp after a week, she said get a brace and keep icing my wrist. After a week and a half I called back and she referred me to the orthopedist. Just got the results of the MRI yesterday.

The orthopedist said to wear the cast for four weeks and to have another MRI at six months. I told him I'm losing about ten pounds a month and he said to come back and get a new cast if it gets loose.
