Hy guys haven't been around for a while . I am suffering the same issue. I had some serious health issues that I had to do 6 months of Chemo. That gave me neuropathy of the fingers. I could not even do up a button. Of course I panicked and decided to sell off my collection so my wife would not be stuck with them. I stopped playing and sold a lot of my guitars. That was five years ago! I finally came to my senses and realized after 10 or 11 semi annual follow ups I wasn't going to go anywhere, if you know what I mean. I went back to my guitar room and started to play again. I have regained 98% of my dexterity in my fingers and was surprised how quickly I was able to get back to where I was then. BUT I really have no motivation to keep going . I kept most of my really good guitars and have no desire to buy anything new. So I am also looking for motivation to have a breakthrough to get beyond my current level. My focus for the last five years has been health. Now I am probably in better shape at 71 than I was in my 40s. My hang up is chords. I do nothing but solo. In a blues call and response setting playing to backing tracks . This might be just what I need. I might have answered my question.
Any way just thought I would say hello.
The Blues is alright!
