I have heard that it is very easy to get carpal tunnel again after you've had surgery for it once. This is especially so if you continue to do repetitive motion work. You may or may not be able to have the workers comp insurance company from before pay for doctors bills. This depends on how you settled your original claim. If it was setteled as an open ended claim you may still be able to collect. I am not sure if there is a time cap on that. But if this is a new injury after you were declared as fully healed after your last surgery you will need to obtain workers comp again through your new employer or if its the same employer file a new claim. (they may not have the same insurance company still). Please note I am not a lawyer and this is just from what I have read and understand to be true since my husband has received carpal tunnel surgery and is involved in a workers comp suit.

How many tunnels could tono tunnel if a tono could tunnel tunnels?
Sheesh! It's the "how much wood would a woodchuck..." again. 1. See the answer to the woodchuck question. 2. Read on. How many tunnels could tono tunnel if a tono could tunnel tunnels. Obvious, yeah? If a tono could tunnel tunnels, then a tono would tunnel as many tunnels as a tono can tunnel. Perhaps tunefully, turbulently, turgidly, temperately, tenaciously, terribly, tempestuously, trepidaciously or terpicatively. Who knows.

Why did David Archuleta get throat surgery?
He didn't get surgery. He developed vocal paralysis at 12 or 13 years old; one of his vocal cords wasn't moving. His throat doctor said that he may need surgery but since it was very risky(and there was a possibility that he could never sing again), David decided to NOT get surgery. He rested his voice for about a year and focused on school.
