I am going on 8 month with CuTS now and it's pretty livable day to day with mild numbness and tingling. However I just started to get a random ache in the lower part of my pinky. Is this normal? Will it go away? It's more of an annoyance than anything else.

Normal? No, none of this CuTs stuff is normal. Expected? Yes, unless you go into remission by discovering the cause and eliminating the behavior that results in the CuTs symptoms (and it works) you will more than likely progress to the next stage which is different for everybody but usually it's the pain/discomfort and the curling (clawing) of the last 2 fingers that scares us to the doctor. Numbness and tingling are a part of the progression. Amazing you can have numbness and pain at the same time. I haven't found that any of this just goes away when it gets to a certain point. At least until after surgery then my tingling stopped but not the numbness and other stuff ......Jennifaux

I took 2 advil before bed last night and woke up and the pain was gone and I haven't felt any pain today. Maybe my pinky can now sense when it is going to rain


How long did you suffer from CuTS before you had surgery?
