I'm sorry things are not going well for you right now. I know it is the most difficult to keep fighting when things just seem to keep getting worse...the past year has just been horrible for me and I know well the temptation to just give up. But just the fact that you haven't given up says something.

I really hope the nerve block helps that that it gives you the chance to get more therapy so that you can keep moving your hand. No matter how small that movement is...you do need to try to keep doing it. And believe me...I KNOW how hard it is to do that. Just do what you can, when you can, and keep trying any little thing that might help. Many members on the forum have given me ideas of new things to try. Some work...some not so much...but every time I see something new I give it a try (well...the stuff I can do without a doctor's order anyway).

What other things have you tried so far? Someone here might be able to suggest something other that the stuff I have mentioned. RSD didn't start in my hands...so I am still learning about things to try with my hands too. It's crazy how many things we take for granted when all our limbs are working...devastating when we can't do them anymore.

There is hope out there...so just keep reminding yourself about the things that are important in life (family, friends, relationships, etc)...keep trying to find whatever good things you can in this world to smile and laugh at. That may be even more difficult than moving your fingers...but you need to remember to keep yourself focused on the good stuff so you know what you are fighting for.

I do hope the blocks are successful. Good luck!
