The wrist splints that Diana is referring to should help. They helped me with the carpal tunnel problems at first. Then mine got worse and the wrist splints didn't work any more.

Janet, hate to say it, but your symptoms sound like classic carpal tunnel syndrome.

Janet, I don't know how i missed this thread!!! I'm glad that you are going to the specialist - I think you need to have this checked out - but I'm hoping it is something simple!

You are right, it is too hot to camp in this heat with no AC - thankfully, she is inside with friends and AC. She is a hoot though, living life to the fullest, doing what she can to enjoy every moment.
