GH would exacerbate your CTS symptoms from what I understand. Causes numbness in hands and extremities.
Have you had those NCV/EMG tests done yet to pinpoint the cause?
I had painful CTS symptoms in my hands, arms and back. I didn't know what was causing it? Whether it was from the GH I was using or rode shock from riding my bike or both? I made adjustments to my bike and put foam in my gloves, seemed to help. I don't have those painful CTS symptoms anymore, so ?
Do you do anything that's repetitive that maybe causing your CTS?

Yes just had the nerve conduction test done a couple weeks back to verify it is CTS. Definitely not interested in HGH. Looking at trying TB-500 as an anti-inflammatory healing agent. Thanks.

Where do I start? Computer, games on phone, writing. Something around 200,000 rounds of pistol shooting. I shot a lot of USPSA last couple summers. Gonna take this year off. 
The range for me is like the gym for most of you guys probably. Hard to be a pistolero with CTS in both wrists, ARRGGGHHH. May try rifle matches this year, much easier on the hands.

Vitamin B6 and Night splints bro help with CTS. Also TB500 and BPC 500 could both be helpful. Id have to see your NCS. IF its severe man you might as well get the surgery, its a 90% cure rate.

Had the surgery myself last December. Much better and would say I am about 90% with that hand now and still improving. Just a slow process. Glad I had it done.

I will also add that you have to follow the doctors instructions 100% on the recovery process. It is hard to not lift anything heavier that a coffee cup for 6-8 weeks, but if you don't you risk not healing properly.

Generally speaking from a surgery standpoint (there are always risks) carpal tunnel has one of the highest most consistent improvement rates compared to other elective surgeries.
As far as skeletal muscle goes the hand is as active as any of them. You have to follow the post surgery instructions for the best results.
