    Hi-There are a number of things you can do to help prevent the
    progress of Carpal Tunnel.  However, it is important to have it
    diagnosed.  I just want to reassure you, that if it is Carpal
    Tunnel, and it ever comes to the point of needing surgery-- I had
    both hands done about 10 years ago, and retained 100% movement and
    flexibility. 

    After spending about two years with numb hands and arms interrupting
    my sleep every night, numb fingers during the day, and other
    discomforts, wearing wrist braces, etc., the surgery was really
    liberating and enabled me to continue to do my favorite things.  I
    would suggest your seeing a hand surgeon, if possible--someone who
    has lots of experience with the subject. 

    As far as the WC goes, I  can understand that it is a tricky
    question.  But you cannot ignore your health needs. Would it be of
    any help to discuss it with your present employer before you make
    the claim, letting him know how serious the outcome could be if you
    don't take care of it? 

Good Luck,  Sandra
