March
Scott found out he had cubital tunnel in his left arm/hand. The ulnar nerve that runs down past your elbow (the funny bone) was pinched causing numbness in his ring and pinky fingers and a bit of pain in his arm. In the surgery the Dr moved the nerve and bypassed it around the elbow. There was a lot of scar tissue around the nerve when his arm was cut into. The Dr said it was one of the worst cases he'd seen. FUN!!! We are still hoping the surgery was a success as he still doesn't have the feeling back in his fingers. It will take some time for the nerve to regenerate. Hopefully by the time he goes in for his follow-up the first of May he'll notice a difference.
