Permanent Radial Nerve Mononeuropathy
 
Is anyone out there who have permanent radial nerve damage? I'd like to ask you guys some questions.

For 3 months now, my radial nerve palsy has not yet seen any improvement. I fractured my left humerus w/c affected my radial nerve. I had underwent surgery 3 months ago. I have recently underwent EMG, and the doctor said complete recovery is very slim. Is there anyone out there who also experienced this?

Update
 
Update on my status. It seems my nerves didn't reconnect properly causing my persistent wrist drop. I'll probably live with for the rest of my life. I ask my doctor if anything could be done with it, but only told me to be hopeful and keep on practicing. I feel really down. I know it's not the end of the world, but I still feel depressed about it. I can't even high five or pick up a pen properly. And that if it's electrically stimulated at the back of my hand, it makes a fist instead of extending my fingers. My mom has been saying that I have been useless, and that it was my fault that my hand didn't heal properly, wow! Like I know can control the pattern of my nerves reconnecting. Seriously what an unnecessary *****! Sorry.... no name swearing. Hm.... I just feel depressed.
