I think i got Carpal Tunnel

OK, my wrists are hurting like a mofo for the past few days. i have been waking up at night and my hands will be complelty numb. shooting pains are mainly in the wrists. it does not affect my arms that much. is this signs of carpal or something else?
 
buy one of those mousepads that have wrist support. also for your keyboard.

*insert another masturbation joke*
 
It could quite possibly. We just learned in anatomy class that shooting pains during the night are a classic symptom of carpal tunnel. As suggested, take some days off from the keyboard or any strenous hand work, and see if it comes back again. If so, go see a doctor.
 
I am coughing up blood several times a week, bright red blood. I also have this excruciating pain in my spine, accompanied by some kind of growth that is the size of a grapefruit. Every so often, I go blind and cannot see a thing, stumbling around until I trip over something, fall and smash my skull wide open. Now after I've done this, I get excruciating headaches and blood gushes out of my ears, eyes, and nose. My foot has turned black, the skin is peeling off and it emits this foul smelling odor that smells up the whole house.

Anyone know what this might be? Should I see a doctor? I've been taking vitamins and stuff, bought some new underwear the other day, and cleaned the mirror in my bathroom, but it doesn't seem to be helping much.
 
Try this, take the hand that hurts and touch your pinky with your thumb and make an "O" shape. Then take your other hand and touch your thumb with your index finger and make it into a shape of a needle nose plier. Take the index/thumb hand and try to pry the pinky/thumb hand apart. If you can't keep the pinky/thumb together you really really should go see a doctor.

tendonitis, hopefully not carpal yet. lay off gaming/mouse usage for a few weeks and you'll recover. buy ergonomic furnature, don't droop your wrists when typing/mousing, get split keyboard, ms multimedia keyboard or other varients are quite nice. get a decent mouse, perhaps teflon tape and a super slick mousepad for low resistence.
 
Could be or it could be tendonitis as well. get the wrist braces and sleep with them on. That will help keep the wrists straight so they won't go numb on you and lay off the repetetive stuff for a week or so. If it still persists see a doctor.
