hi,
management of carpal tunnel syndrome and other neurologic anomalies are step wise. You are juts at the beginning of the various treatment options. Your doctors certainly wish to give you the best, least expensive and cumbersome treatment. Depending on your response options like corticosteroid infiltration could be tried. It would also be a good idea if you could run your serum electrolytes (Calcium, Potasium and Magnesium) especially, and at times some multivitamin supplementation helps.
I think you should be patient with your neurologist and address you worries whenever possible.
