as title guys, i have been in and out hospital for around 4 years now, partly becuase the doctors didnt spot my problems, and its damm obvious as i have severe muscle wastage on my hand which is a serious nerve problem
and servere pain everyday from my neck down to my fingers

now the nerves to your arm start from your cervical spine and go under your collarbone down to your fingers. ive had every scan and from spine to bicep and my nerve tests on my whole arm (emg) were fine.
the only area to scan now is the elbow as one nerve runs under the funnybone and the other 2 nerves over the funnybone, the elbow is the area which irritates me the most but is not the most painfull place in the arm i have problems with

now i ask, if they cant find anything wrong with the elbow, surley can they do an operation where they explore and visually see my nerves to have a look??

Yes they can do an 'exploratory' anywhere in your body!
I have had 2 through my belly button and one in my back. The one through my tummy was called a laparoscapy, but cant remember what the one in my back was called. Its where they basically cut a teeny weeny hole, and place a camera inside and have a good ole look around!
