3.5 months DS1 broke his arm and sustained a radial nerve injury which means he can't move his right wrist or thumb. He's had about a dozen x-rays, nerve conduction studies, 2 MRI's and they all shed no light onto the problem. Today when I picked him up from school he said "hey mum, look what I can do" and to lifted his hand! He's got full wrist control back overnight. Still can't move his thumb but that's sure to follow :D
Yahoo. How stressful for you! Dd broke her arm around the same time and I know how worried I was with her pins and needles. But they too have all settled. I can't imagine what it would have been like with the follow stuff you have had to do!
now where's the like button ;) Thats great news and glad he hasn't needed surgery on it!
Oh that is fantastic news!!!
Good work little man!
What a relief! That's great news!
He's so happy he doesn't have to go through more nerve conduction studies. They were horrible, basically they used a tazer to pass electric currents through his arm to track the nerve and they were next on the list for being repeated if he didn't recover.
Woohoo!
:hooray:
That's really great
Eeek I still can't believe it! I feel like I need to make an oscar worthy speech but can I please say thank you so much to everyone on BB who helped me during his injury with advice, practical support and a listening ear. I was so worried he would never be able to move his hand again I think I would have fallen to pieces without this forum.
