Re: Carpal tunnel syndrome

[Guest guest]

Hi All

I have not posted any messages lately....but I do read

them everyday.

I have had CMT for as long as I can remember...and I

am now 46. About 6 years ago, I was having terrible

numbness and tingling in both my hands. I am a

Nurse..and I suspected Carpal Tunnel syndrome. I saw

my neurologist who did nerve conduction studies. He

was able to determine that the numbness was caused by

the carpal tunnel and not my CMT. I went ahead and had

the surgery on my right hand and then 2 weeks later on

my left. It was the best thing I did. I have not had

anymore numbness or tingling.

I would suggest you get a different opinion if you

have any doubts.....but I know for me...I am glad I

had the surgery.

Robin
