Annie,
I had the numbness in my hands on and off for years. All the doctors I saw said it was carpal tunnel syndrome. It actually got to the point where they were sending me to see a surgeon. All this without even checking my vitamin B12 levels. It makes me wonder how many people have had surgery without needing it? Surely it should be checked before someone is sent to a surgeon?

Frightening.
