subject: [Paddlewise] Numb Hands/Fingers - Tingling
Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2011 17:37:46 -0700
My hands are both numb and tingling, mostly in the fingers (pins and
needles) and especially my right thumb after canoeing this summer. I see a
doctor in a week. I assume it may be carpal tunnel related. Anyone had
experience with this? Surgery?

I have somehting like this with my fingers, progressively getting worse for a 
few years.  Bad on the bicycle (so numb I can hardly change gears) and sometimes 
doing other things it comes and goes.  Rarely bothers me canoeing, but then I am 
usually in a canoe and can switch hand position a lot.
Sawbones is sending me for conduction tests on my ulnar nerve(s).
