    Carpel tunnel syndrome is a sensation of numbness or 'Pins & Needles' in your hands.Seems to affect people who have worked with their hands.There is an operation which I believe has a 60% success rate.I have had it for many years but don't consider it bad enough to warrant surgery.Unless it is really having a dramatic affect on your life don't worry about it.My condition has never gotten any worse.
    I have been diagnosed with carpel tunnel,It's really a pain in the rear,I drop things constantly and have a lot of pain in my hands from shooting pains to complete numbness,I am weighing the risks of surgery,still undecided.

    Yes I have heard of these symptoms.It is a pain when you drop things.I have never experienced any pain,just numbness.
