aren't you a little young for that???

my gran had it done when she was in her eighties. the quack blamed the fact that she'd been playing the piano for about 75 years..

Carly has (well ok had) CPT during pregnancy and now her hands go numb now and again. The doc said it was still CPT and needed a steroid injection.... The quack couldnt do it so I sent Carly to a sports therapist who said it wasnt CPT anymore, it was due to her posture causing the ligaments to trap way down her arm (source of problem is in the middle of her back)

worth a chat to a physio first

unless you are a bunch of ****ers, I cant see if being GENUINE CPT (unless you are diabetic and dont know it ). Get to a sports therapist/physio and see what they have to say about it. GP's seem to take the easy way out and claim all wrist pain is CPT

I had to have a quatazone (sc) injection for cts but that was after sanding down 300 cars a day for 7 years in honda.

I was curious, and calculator was only a click away, but assuming you work a 5 day week, around 4-5 weeks holiday a year, for the full 7 years, you've sanded down around half a million cars lol
