I did have another MRI done about a month ago. It showed nothing different from my MRI 2 years ago, except that the pinched nerve that was pinched from the C5/C6 rupture is now back to normal. I've been to a neurologist 5 times in the last 6 months and he can't figure what is going on at all.
I definitely have strength loss in my hand and it's odd, but I can't separate pages with my thumb and forefinger cause of the strength loss and not being able to grasp things with my thumb.
This whole thing is more than fustrating.
I think if you went to a neurologist and had a scan done of your cervical spine, the doctor will find what is amiss, be it in the disk replacement that was done two years ago, or another disk that is pushing on a nerve. You should expect to be able to hold some papers in your affected hand without difficulty, so the source for the problem must be found and corrected if possible. But the short answer is, you have a nerve in the cervical spine that is being pushed on or pinched or is damaged in some manner, and this has got to be diagnosed by a neurologist and he will decide whether to go with moderate treatment like physical therapy, maybe a brace, and medications to help the problem, or he'll go the surgery route.
