That's the problem. After all the MRI's, EMG'S, etc, the best
answer
I ever got was that the lesion is 'somewhere in my mid-back'.
I never
had hand problems until a few years ago, but I've had TM since 1988,
so I'm thinking I do have carpal tunnel. But this question is
why I've put
the surgery off for so long.

Where was your lesion? I would be concerned that your symptoms are from the TM. My lesion was T8-9 and I have all those symptoms you mention in my hands. (and everywhere else below the waist standing with arms down)Sandy Brassil

Subject: [TMIC] OT Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Hi all, Hope everyone had a good weekend. I was wondering if anyone has had surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome and how successful it was? I have it in both hands, with severe numbness, weakness, stiffness, pain. Are these symptoms you had? I'm also concerned that cts is the correct diagnosis because of the TM, but I've had EMG's and other tests which showed cts, as well as ulnar nerve damage. I know that someone on the list wrote that they had cts, but don't remember the details. Thanks all, Kevin
