Carpal tunnel like symptoms post COVID

Wow! Thank you for sharing! I just had my 3rd carpal tunnel nerve test and I show I have “mild” carpal tunnel in my right hand and prior to being vaccinated I never had any issues.
I am still going to Dr after Dr trying to figure this out. I no longer have carpal tunnel in my left hand, however my left hand hurts constantly! No reason for the pain in my left hand as well! I have been struggling with constant numbness and tingling in my left hand and right, but no tests show why!
I just had a nerve biopsy done in my left leg to test for peripheral neuropathy and hoping I get some better answers!
Thinking of you and your struggle! Are you hands better now after surgery?

I am sorry to hear that your pain is still with you and the the Electromyography (EMG) wasn't able to find the issue for you left hand. Yes the surgery help greatly. For the First couple of weeks, my hands still where numb, stinging, and tingling, but I was able to get through the day. Then the symptoms started to go away. I still have some shock go through my left arm every so often, my strength is up to about 90% of what it was prior, and the middle lower part of my palms hurt something aweful if I put to much weigh on them. But I am reminded by my specialist that recovery can take up to a year. Even if I don't make a full recovery, I am happy to be rid of the pian that was there before. I feel for each and every one that has this issue.
