Still feeling some pain and weakness after surgeries

I recently had endoscopic carpal tunnel release surgery on each of my hands. I had my right (dominant) wrist done on April 11 and the left wrist done on April 22. I had the second set of stitches removed on May 6. I think I'm recovering pretty well but am beginning to feel frustrated. I don't know if I'm just being impatient though. I am still feeling quite a lot of weakness in my wrists and have a hard time picking up anything even kinda heavy. Also, I am feeling a slight pain or burning feeling in both of my wrists. This usually occurs when I'm trying to do something around th house. I don't work and my husband & daughter (1 have been taking wonderful care of me but I'm ready to start doing things for myself again. Unfortunately, each time I try to do something - such as cook dinner, do laundry, surf the internet - I always pay the price of pain afterwords. Am I just pushing myself too hard? When I went in for my stitches to be removed I mentioned it to my doctor & he said to only do what I can do without pain or discomfort. I guess I need to be more patient! I'm also crazy about knitting & crochet (probably where the CTS came from along with lots of computer use). How soon before I'll be able to do that without any pain at all?
