Re: C-Section's & RBPI W/ Horner's Syndrome

<t>Sorry to post yet again, but after reading Kate's post, I also agree there are other ways the brachial plexus can be affected. I've heard of a few other causations due to tumors growing in that area, abnormalities in the muscle/nerve development, etc... However, I've also heard atrophy is often p...

Re: C-Section's & RBPI W/ Horner's Syndrome

<t>Yolanda, <br/> <br/> Thanks for the response regarding whether the C-section was planned. I'm sure many of us have our theories on how these injuries happen, but I have always suspected a few reasons as to why the injuries can happen in C-sections, however I am not in the medical field and they a...

Re: C-Section's & RBPI W/ Horner's Syndrome

Hi Yolanda,

I am sorry to hear about your grandchild's injury. I am curious to know if your daughters C-section was planned early or if she went into labor first? Thanks.

I was only a couple of weeks pregnant and we set up mtgs. or an interview (if you will) w/the OB ahead of t...

Re: Having another child after BPI with 1st

<t>Hi Cara, <br/> <br/> With my second child, I had a scheduled C-Section at 38 weeks and had a perfectly healthy baby. The recovery was definately harder, but I just could not risk another child getting injured. I was so nervous when I was pregnant about going into labor early, I'd have nightmares ...
