Carpal Tunnel, anyone had to deal this.

[rich-allen]

I've had carpal tunnel in both hands for 7 years now. In 2002, I had surgery for both carpal tunnel and ulnar-neuropathy. The biggest mistake I made, was refusing to go to the doctor. I have permanent loss of feeling in two fingers.

I get shots of cortisone once, sometimes twice a year. The shots actually help the pain more than surgery did.
The shots will eliminate the pain and numbness within two days and they last as long as 16 months.

I would forget about surgery unless your getting two - three shots a year.
Your physician will tell you the same.

Remember, until you stop doing the movements that caused the carpal tunnel, you can forget about completely curing it.

I feel your pain.
