Hey Everyone
I don't know if, this information can help anyone else out there but, I thought I would share what I found out from my doctors about a procedure on Monday. After talking and running through the normal exam stuff on my arm. The conversation got onto the topic of was there anything out there that could help my CP in my arm and I was told that there is a operation called a Selective Motor fasciculotomy, it is basically gives the same kinds of result as it sister procedure for the leg, which is called SDR surgery.
Like, I said don't know if, this information can help anyone else out there but, I thought I would share it to give anyone a second or even third avenue to explore as far as treatment. Below is a link with some information on this surgery.

I really have limited use of my left arm, I can raise it above my head, I cannot extend my arm to full extension it is always bent slightly at the elbow. I can only use my hand for grasping.
