thank you very much and Im glad to hear you are very strong and doing well.
Only 3 weeks out!! Take it easy my friend. Nerves are nothing like muscles. You do not want scar tissue to anchor to the closest spot because you over used it. You are going to have to give yourself months. But that does not mean staying still, it just means the second the "special" pain starts, stop moving, and let it subside. Then let it recover for a day or two. Try to stop before the pain starts Take the long road home, you will be very happy you did 20 years from now. Nerves take a very long time to heal, a millimeter a month my Neurosurgeon told me. He was the on call Neurosurgeon whenever the past few presidents visited Connecticut, unfortunately for me, he has retired, and he deserves it.
