    I have faith in God,so I know I'll be back to normal as soon as I get this over with...My question is:If the Neurologist said I'm a 8-9 on a scale of 1-10 in severity,+symptoms have persisted increasingly over the past 3 yrs(Disregarded as an unexplained Neuropathy/Misdiagnosed until I had an EMG),will I be able to play softball come late May/early June?I'm thinking that constant throwing as a catcher is obviously an aggravating factor(tho only approx 2-4games/wk thru the summer),let alone the fact I've always slept w/hands under my face/pillow/arms extended above my head or hands balled up in fists throughout my entire life.I've played the guitar for 25yrs,tho I seldom "rock out."Another factor is that I did a lot of punching in my day,&I may have caused injury to my right wrist on a particular occasion.When I SEE RED,BLOOD SPEWS!But realistically, I'm a lil scared of 1)Loss of strength 2)Scars,& 3)Rehab time...What to do?...Apprehensive, yet OPTIMISTIC!
