I wish you all the luck in the world.. Unfortunantly the facts supporting carple Tunnel surgury arent positive.
I hope it all goes well for you.
You might have all the facts at hand, but its best to know everything about whats going on.
Good news is complications only occur rarely - its getting full use back thats the issue.
From the website :
Full restoration is achieved in less than 60% of surgeries. Downtime and rehabiliation generally range from six weeks to three months, but can take over a year, depending on how many lingering symptoms result and the degree of scar tissue formation as this primary ligament in the hand heals back together.
It is not uncommon for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Symptoms to return within two years of surgery, even when surgery goes well, if repetitive stress activities continue through routine use of a person's hands at work or at home. When Symptoms return, hand surgeons will consider performing a second surgery.
