Anytime.  I had to double check myself because, working with kids it's not
something I come in contact with much.

Beth,

Thanks!  I knew I was off somewhat, and my doc mentioned epicondylitis at
the same time that he talked about the other two.  I apparently mixed up the
descriptions.  Thanks for straightening me out!

persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress

 Hm, oh, I'm supposed to be awake here.  The cubital tunnel much like the
carpal tunnel are structures where nerves can easily be pinched.  Carpal
tunnel syndrome is where the median nerve goes over the wrist, the cubital
tunnel is in the elbow medially.  Tennis elbow is lateral epicondylitis
caused by forceful extension of the wrist.(you can feel were this happens if
as you extend your wrist, you place your opposite hand on the outside of
your elbow the muscel will move).

Here's a nice discussion of cubital tunnel syndrome with links to other
common upper extremity overuse syndromes
