<r>It's been a year or 2 since I've been on this site. I used to post, but then got busy. Oops! Anyways, I'm Shannon, I'm a LOBPI, I'm 24 living in Homestead, FL. Having BPI has been rough, I get depressed a lot about it but what can you do.. I have a wonderful husband (but no kids yet) I'm currentl...

<r>I have LOBPI and I've played ice hockey my entire life. well up until about 3 years ago when the town I live in got rid of their only ice rink <E>:-(</E> but I was even recruited to play college, unfortunately I was only good enough for a partial scholarship, so I went instate instead <E>:)</E> I...

<t>GOt the problem here too! I also like to use the ones that clasp in the front, but I do have some of the other ones and I just put it on backwards, then twist it around to the right way, and then put the straps on last. I also adjust the strap for my OBPI arm to be shorter.. that helps for it to ...

When I had chicken pox when I was a kid... I don't remember vividly but from what my mom said, I had a few bumps on my obpi side, but definitely not as much as the rest of me.

I'm in Florida. Tallahassee right now, soon to be moving down south. Anywhere from West Palm Beach to Miami.... not sure yet. My internship is in West Palm, but apartments are so expensive up there!

<t>I'm a little late to post to this topic but here I go, I'm a left OBPI. I'm 22yrs old and about to get my Master's degree in Sport Administration. Yeah! I have pretty good movement of my arm, but can't extend it upward and my ring and pinky fingers are just about useless..lol My wrist curves my h...

I use the wet roll too and prop the arm up on the wall... you know what's a pain in the rear though? shaving. put eoderant under the good arm WITH the good arm isn't so bad... but trying to shave that bad boy... goodness.

I've tried golf before, I just use my good arm as the bottom one, I can get a pretty good shot off that way. Same in hockey, I was pretty good at ice hockey and used my good arm basically to whack the puck. good ol' lefty didn't do much.
