carpal tunnel / numbing = different kind of vent though

I love it when I get this response... when I explain how my hands feel like they are on fire, numb fingers etc. etc.  and people are like "oh, i've never heard of that as a problem"  and i'm sure that that is what they "mean" but it sounds more like "oh, it sounds like you're making that up / its all in your head" etc. etc.

  • Huh, I I've heard of it. In fact, I have it right now. Is it (numbness) in your pinkies and ring fingers? So weird.

  • I had it when I was pregnant with DS#1 and people IRL always treated me like I was making it up when I would say something about it.  I had carpal tunnel pretty bad too.  From what I read here and talking to my doctor, it's a fairly common thing in pregnancy.  It's a pain in the butt, though! 

    It was completely gone for me after about a week post-partum.  I haven't had any symptoms since then (knock on wood).
