Re: Hey Everyone
That sounds like very good news to me, especially so soon after your surgery.
On my initial assessment, my consultant he thought he could detect something in my triceps and scored me as a 1 out of 5 I think. A few months later I could lift my previously dead arm above my head. My problem was a relatively simple crushed radial nerve, so not the same nerve or injury as yours, but a flicker is a flicker and I don't think that nerves care how they were damaged, so I really hope things continue to improve for you.

I must say that its great to have some flicker but the pain is increasing...guess its to be expected

Re: Hey Everyone
4 months post op.
Went to see the surgeon today. Was able to pull my arm toward my bicep on table without help. SLOW but now some hope.
