I’ve been to PT 7 times so far and it’s going well. The therapist is working on my arm as well as my hand, concentrating on my pronator and my grip strength. I had an appointment with my doctor today for the first time in four weeks. He was encouraged by the tiny amount of movement I’m showing in my index finger and thumb since the last visit. I don’t have to go back to him for three months unless I need him for something. It’s still up in the air as to whether or not I will get 100% back to what it was, but I’m focusing on the positive!

Hi, @chriso12345 - sounds like the PT is making a difference for your arm and hand. What types of exercises does the PT have you doing?

@confused1955 - You'd mentioned you had very little use of your hands and had burning sensations, and you also said you felt as though you were wasting and had lost quite a bit of weight. Wondering how you are doing?

@vgottlieb24 and @patrick17 - how are you feeling lately with your PTS?
