Well, I've seen the doctor, and he's diagnosed me with "overuse both forearms/wrists". He's referred me to a PT, with whom I should have an appointment next Wednesday morning, assuming nothing goes horribly wrong with the Worker's Comp. The recommendation is for a good exercise and stretching program. One interesting thing, he explicitly pointed out that I needed to work on strengthening the large muscles in the upper torso which support the arms, suggesting that it's weakness there which is leading to fatigue where it hurts.

So the good news is that I still don't need surgery. Hopefully this time this PT thing will work.

Yay for no surgery. Here's hoping it all goes well, and your arms work again.
