You need to see a Doctor, have nerve tests and if your diagnosis is confirmed get the operation done.

Yes you seem to have all the symptoms of ct see a gp and they will send u to see a consultant to get it confirmed

CTS is carpal tunnel syndrome. I assume Dorothy had just shortened it for convenience
