Carpal tunnel syndrome and poling

Just came back from the doctors(been having weird wrist/hand/forearm/ pain for a few months). She thinks it is carpal tunnel(both hands). Sending me for some nerve testing and I have to wear wrist/forearm splints in the evening, and no poling for two weeks to see if it improves. Does anyone else suffer from Carpal tunnel, and how has it effected your poling. Mine does not seem to hurt while I am poling.
