it can't be any worse than wiping yr arris with numb fingers like wot I have got...  my CTS started suddenly 4 weeks ago and seems to have gone straight to the 'agony' setting...  I'm presently in negotiation with my GP for surgery as mentioned above,  the cortisone injections work - but only just and only for a short time...
 
 I want an 888...   arriving next week hopefully
