I would love to investigate the posibility of micro-surgery for the repair of my nerves. I don't even know what to search for on google? Another question...does anyone know if a surgeon can tell if he damaged or cut the nerve (I don't know...maybe all surgeons damage the nerves and just some of us have bodies that can't regenerate it?). Maybe these are questions for my surgeon...but I haven't been too lucky with getting info from him. Thanks...Caycee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
