<r>Hiya Gina, I don't want to come off as a naysayer but I think you 2 should wait just a little while before trying to conceive kids. I'm not trying to scare you but I work in the field involving developmental and handicapped children and adults. <br/> <br/> Definately discuss " THE WHOLE THING " w...

My emg specialist is obpi. He singlehandedly ( no pun ) diagnosed the extent of my injury. Even performed the surgical emg directly to my spine.

I must say meeting him was rather inspiring !

<r>My main surgeons card reads " hand and reconstructive surgery ". Sounded good to me ? What the heck was I gonna do ? After I figured out the " in's and out's " of it I realised I was in the best hands possible for my type of injury. In fact it was the Emg Dr. ( emg being a nerve conduction test )...

<r>Hi Karen. My name is Mike but I'm better know as Mikeyb around here and the other msg board. It really is a small world as I'm from London Ont. So we aren't that far away. I'll try and keep this short. I TBPI'ed my right arm 5 years ago. Had my brachial plexus reconstructed surgically 3 months af...

Just a thought,

Chopping yer arm off won't stop central nervous pain.

If yer hand has the buzz, burn, clamp, thingy going amping it won't make much difference.

Your brain is still sending signals...

<r>Yup I've been thinking about it Jack. 4 and a half years on. I hadn't seen my surgeon for almost 2 years and the second word out of his mouth was " have you ever thought of amping your lower arm ". <br/> <br/> They did a great job of strengthing my upper arm and elbow but the hand and wrist just ...

<r>Hi guys, I haven't been around for a bit. I tbpi'ed my right dominant arm aug 98. C8 and T1 nerve roots avulsed. <br/> <br/> I had reconstructive surgery 3 months post accident. To date my upper arm has regained most of it's previous movement but my hand and wrist is still negligable ( fail ). My...
