You can try... can't make too many promises however.

Things can be very different in Germany... they have lots of drugs there that we don't have here, for example.

I don't want to really convert all figures from SI units to conventional either...that can take a long time doing. But I'll glance over them. If there are ranges provided that would help.

I will just paste their conclusions from two EMG tests:

1 test:
Elektrophysiol. findings: Neurographically, regular sensory and motor potentials in all examined nerves of the upper limb. In EMG only in the muscles supplied by the radial nerve there are signs of chronic neurogenic alterations without evidence of pathological spontaneous activities; no fasciculations demonstrated reliably in EMG.
Conclusions: Suspected chronic neurogenic damage to the muscles supplied by the right radial nerve; no reliable evidence of plexus lesion or radiculopathy.


2 test:

Elektrophysiol. findings: EMG found only in first dorsal interosseous muscle one-time path. Spontaneous activity in the form of PSW, here (also, presumably, in M. abductor pollicis brevis right) also short fasciculations; furthermore, slightly increased polyphasic rates in all examined muscles, increased amplitudes of the MUAPs and reduced interference pattern (at partially submaximal tension).
Conclusions: Also in the hand muscles supplied by the ulnar nerve and median nerve, there are signs of chronic neurogenic alterations and a slight indication of acute denervation in this area; findings thus go beyond an isolated radial nerve lesion.

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.
