Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Support Group
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a medical condition in which the median nerve is compressed at the wrist causing symptoms like tingling, numbness, night time wakening, pain, coldness, and sometimes weakness in parts of the hand. CTS is more common in women than it is in men, and has a peak incidence around age 50 (though it can occur in any adult).
I had cts in both hands,had surgery on right hand(which was way worse than left) 8 months ago. that surgery went so well, was such a relief that when I went in for first check up, I set up surgery time for left hand. Ok...now, its not really the pain like it was before in my right hand, its like my middle finger gets really stiff and the bone that goes down in my hand from this finger is really painful to touch. My thumb also feels strange like it is now double jointed...I know this sounds crazy...but does anyone relate to this????

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
