Carpal tunnel can definitely be irritated by excess weight, that's for sure. When I was 400+ lbs., I had serious problems with carpal tunnel. Since losing 180 lbs., this problem has cleared up entirely, even though I probably spend MORE time on the computer now than I did before.

When my weight passed the 307 - 314 range, I would get full-force carpal tunnel. When I would lose weight -- get down below 302, ALL symptoms would disappear. I use the computer consistently.
