it's now been a full year since my symptoms returned and like yours they keep getting worse.
i got a copy of the independant medical exam yesterday which said i was stable and surgery wouldn't help me. i see my surgeon next week an we'll decide on our next course of action. luckily he has had cases where the nerve tests were "normal" but the patient still had CTS.
my employer is playing the "let's make it so miserable/frustrating for her so she'll go away" game. but i'm not about to give up. i just want to re-gain the use of my hands.
have you tried amitriptylne yet? if not, have your Dr write you out a prescription of it for the 25mg tab strength. it helps to calm down the nerves in the hands (I take 3-4 tabs daily).
