Roughly how close was max nerve use to how it was before the accident? 60%? 80%?



It's hard to gauge, but...

* Before the accident the nerve was 100% (undamaged)

* Immediately after it was 0% (could not feel anything - including the sensation of heat)

* 1 year after ~20% (could feel the sensation of heat and firm presses)

* 2 years to now ~70% (could feel heat and soft presses)

I still only type with 7 of 8 fingers on the keyboard because I have a hard time determining the location of that one finger.
