Living with Carpel Tunnel

I was diagnosed with Carpel Tunnel Syndrome years ago, work related, i changed jobs because of it but over the years with typing etc i am suffering once again, it never went away but it was not as bad as it used to be, i have found that i have Arthritis in my hand now especially in my middle finger it has gone all lumpy, i have also been diagnosed with Arthritis in my shoulder, i dont know if it is all conected but i would say so. My hand stiffens up and i dont have a lot of strength in it at all, i know of some people who had the operation a few years ago and they were worse after it which is why i have never pushed to have it done. I suppose it is just something i will have to live with, it is painful but you do get used to it xx
