The bad news is that I have carpal tunnel syndrome. The good news is that we’ve caught it early and the prognosis for a full recovery is good!

Just when C&V and K&M were getting comfortable on my blogroll! But your wrists need rest, of course; an embargo on typing and similar repetitive movement activities is mandatory.
