Well last month after about a year of my left hand tingling and getting to the point that my left hand was becoming numb I went to the Doctor. The nurologist completed a nerve study that indicated that I have nerve damage and that below my elbow I have a 53% nerve blockage.
After the flight surgeon grounded me I requested another nerve study.
My question is this: Is there a way to cheat that test. It is actually two tests. One is when they shock the living poop out of different places on the arm. The second one is where they poke a needle in about 30 places and test the nerve activity.
I am not looking forward to surgery or the freaking waiver process the Army has so I can continue to fly.
Just wondering. I have been grounded about a month now. I know people talk about missing riding their Busas but there is nothing like flying at tree top level at 140 knots (approx 165 mph) and then pulling +3.0g's in a 60 degree climb then nosing her over to about 40 degrees nose low neg g's and blowing the poop out of things. I really miss that.
Anyway what are your thoughts?
