Default Hand specialist

Seen a hand specialist today. He is an orthopedic surgeon, operates also on the nerves. His initial idea was: there is no nerve entrapment, and certainly not in plexus brachialis. He wants to see my EMG to be sure there is or is not an entrapment somewhere else - gonna do that tomorrow.

Also, he thinks a surgery could restore some functionality in my right hand, but the nerves are probably beyond repair after so much time.

He confused me, saying my muscles were not wasted.

I'm getting tired of the doctors.

He also named a neurologist, who apparently takes the issue of any potential deficiencies seriously, so that might be my next point of call.
