I was told that it is normal for the numbness from CT to be worse at night.
I only have a problem with it myself while pregnant and early postpartum,
and it's always worse at night by far.  I found wearing wrist braces to bed
helped. I found from that that I had been "cocking" my wrists at an angle
that worsened the problem and also decreased circulation, while sleeping.
Hope you can help her, weaning from carpal tunnel sounds a bit weird,
doesn't it?
