has anyone regained function/feeling in the hand...?

Question:

after a nerve was severed and reattached at the arm?

Answers:
It takes a long time but yes, apparently so!

very questionable as to whether or not you'll regain total feeling or control. Nerve damage is one thing we have been very much unable to treat effectively. If the nerve was severed? Probably not. You use the word 'sever' which to me means it was completely cut. They reattach it in hopes that there's an outside chance that somehow the body will regrow peripheral nerve tracts through the areas in which nerves had previously grown. Some people say they've regained some level of feeling or function, but realistically, it will never be what it once was.

Luckily, more than one nerve innervates the hand, and the muscles which work the fingers, and you should still have a reasonable level of function. Which nerve was severed, that makes a difference.
