I had both my wrist done in 2011. I had sever carpal tunnel in both. What drove me to have it done was lack of sleep and losing hand strength. I had mine done Arthroscopic. I highly recommend the arthroscopic procedure. I am a union Ironworker and welder. I went back to work almost immediately. Lots of pain but I had a full recovery with zero reoccurrence of symptoms.
