Nerve De-Compression surgery for pain
Hello All,
It's been a long time since I've been on this site. I'm sorry about that. I know this is an extremely tight-knit community, full of information. I am hoping you will share some of your knowledge with me.
I was injured 15 years ago. I still have significant pain. I no longer take narcotics but do take Neurontin along with Suboxone/Bupenorphine.
I've been researching "nerve de-compression" surgery to clean up scar tissue around the injury. Has anyone tried this and seen the pain lessen?
Or is there anything anyone else is doing to reduce the pain?
I thank you for any information you can give me.
My best, Suzanne

You are doing Great, You Try 
Pain relief is a Quest , by post to
What ever you find that helps do it, There are many post trying to find the right med.
Till then resting your arm in trying to adapt Many use Dan sling to . Being weightless in water theory help to.
I dont know which is worse , scare tissue or nerve stretch,
If the doctors could do nerve extension it would help more than for nerve stretch and pain 
It tough being us
