Scar tissue doesn't seem to be a problem. They said the incision is beautifully done, with no attachment to underlying muscle. A nerve block was tried once (with ultrasound guidance) but with little effect. We're not going to try it again as the whole thing was very difficult for him to get through.

They do seem to expect much more progress, although I keep telling them to look back three months ago to see how far he's come. I don't always see a week-to-week noticeable progress, but if I back up a month, I see lots of progress. I have questioned them about their familiarity with CRPS. But the only other place I can find that will work with kids and is familiar with this is a rather long drive so we deal with their unrealistic expectations best we can.
