Need diagnosis: First, if you have diabetes, that may explain bilateral ulnar nerve problems, but, if not may need to assess how this happened. Second, is the problem at wrist, or elbow, or even lower brachial plexus? Has an EMG test been done, and if so, the severity may dictate the therapeutic decisions?
