I was dx with carpal tunnel in both hands but my left hand was so much worse,so i had surgery on it last thursday.I pitched a fit as my veins are so bad.They finally got the anesthesiologist in there & got it done.We also made sure I didn't get the wrong type of anesthesia didn't want to come out not knowing anything.We were very explicit.Everything was done as we wanted & I'm a happy camper,lol.........

I have to be careful of the diff.meds & supplements as my body won't tolerate most.......Besides I don't believe in alot of that anyway,lol......

Snow, I'm also happy to hear about your successful surgery.
I'm curious to know - did you ever hear about or try taking vitamin B6? My Mom told me about it, said it works wonders for a lot of folks with CTS. As always, it doesn't work for everybody, but in itself is harmless and safe, and rather inexpensive. I've used it for a while now, and have been able to keep the symptoms at bay. I know that eventually it probably will quit working, but as long as it does work, I can. Because I don't take as many other meds as some of you, I don't have any information about interactions, but I just thought I'd toss this into the ring.

Having the surgery was the best thing I could have done for myself.No more pain,numbness,or tingling..........

snowlynned, so glad to hear everything when ok and you are on the road to recovery.I have carpel tunnel in both hands at 85%.But no surgey.I am a chicken

Got the stitches taken out today but only minimal use of the hand for the next 2 months.I have no need to go back until & If my right hand needs to be done.......

Lynne Im so glad to hear it worked out so well for you!

I'm doing great.Can even write a little with my hand now,I just can't bear down on anything yet.....

Glad to hear that it worked out and hope your recovery goes well....

Great news, Lynne, thanks for the update.

So glad that everything worked out well. Hope your hand feels much better real soon!
