Hurting, Sorry to hear ur nerve didnt heal and that the desensitizing didnt work. Mine also was the radial nerve and i did/and still get desensitizing. My therapist worked slow-starting with very soft cloth for short time and i was the one that did it not him(that way i knew how much pressure i could take). I worked up thru different fabrics and then was able to use warm rice(not cooked but microwaved so it was warm on my skin) and that really helped. I was never able to do beans-to textured and cool. I also found hot water therapy really helped to desensitize my legs. My nerve surgery didnt work either but i know i have to desensatize so i can let things touch me. Hope things work out for you.
