radial nerve damage
hi new to this and looking to chill with folks. i was struck by a car travelling 45 mph no breaking or slowing down on a highway. i lucked out with basicly no injury besides one ruptured nerve(radial) in my shoulder as a result of my shoulder smashing in thier windsheild frame. although its just one nerve it has left me with a realm of consequences in my right arm effecting the entire arm and hand although i have made some recovery and it keeps coming as a result of my grafts and nonstop excercise. i was 25 when this happened and a very fit atheletic person who loved weightlifting, martial arts and guitar. A very hands on person to say the least and i still perform all these activitys just with added difficulties i am slowley overcoming. but now that it has been years post accident i dont feel as bad anymore i feel my perspective is changing and im viewing the world differently and perhaps even liberated myself from ratrap perspectives that end in nothing. im pretty laid back and cool with anybody holler if you relate
