I'm trying to remember -- I had a nerve test thingy done to see what was going on with my wrist, and it turned out to be my elbow instead. The pinky is the ulnar nerve, maybe?, and the one that comes from your middle finger is the one that verifies carpal tunnel. I think. I could be wrong. My only advice is not to get the surgery! Worst mistake I ever made.

Definitely do get it checked out with your doc. If you can, see a hand surgeon and have him give you a brace. It is a night and day difference between the braces you get from orthopods and the braces you get at Walgreens! Not even close. I never realized exactly what support felt like till I got a real brace!

Hope you get some relief soon.
