Hi canders7,
If you have got carpal tunnel syndrome, it is very

important to have your thyroid function checked, as

carpal tunnel syndrome is often the first indication of

thyroid problems. Get them to do the blood tests !!!!

If caused by thyroid problems, the carpal tunnel syndrome

will improve when the thyroid is rebalanced. This

happened to me & it took the docs 15 years to think of

thyroid disorders.

Good luck, don't let them operate, & your physio doesn't

sound that experienced either.
