I read your article,and wasn't sure if anyone had responded to it or not? I am 32 years old,and had carpal tunnel surgery on right hand about 8-10 years ago,and not sure I can answer for anyone else,but in my case I never got complete relief after the surgery! It may have felt a little better,but not much dofferent at all! So I never went back to have left hand done,and am regreting it now! I just recently had emg testing and have severe carpal tunnel in both hands/wrists! It is really severe.rhink I may have let it go too long! Can barely put my daughtes hair in a pony tail! Can't make a tight fist,and suffer day and night with pain and numbness! I awake several times nightly in pain! I'm seeing a neurologist on the 29th of this month,not sure what is gonna hapen from there? But just wanted to let you know my right hand is worsr now then before I had surgery before. Hope this might help you?
