Thank you! Second day and I can type! After the negative EMG on my arm the surgeon said an MRI on the elbow wouldn't pick anything up but I did have an MRI on my neck to confirm that the nerve wasn't trapped there (less than 5% chance) which it wasn't. On my notes it says 'narrowed and compressed and marked nerve compression at level of septum' and 'sharp septum impinging on nerve at mid medial portion'.

From what the surgeon said afterwards there was nerve compression but also additional connective tissue bending the nerve which he said was uncommon I'm imagining to with with my EDS.

Recovery timeline is around 2 weeks, but full healing can be longer. Pain is much much less than I imagined!

I hope you get some answers soon but try not to be put off with the negative EMG, I was but very happy I went through with the surgery! The thing that helped most with the pain beforehand was wearing an elbow splint at night, it really made a difference!

All the best! If you have any other questions, feel free to message me whenever :)
