Post by joy donohoe »

hi all as you know my son mark was diagnosed with bpn over 6 years ago, he is due to have a muscle transfer in feb,now although he has no movement in his arm he had full function of his hand untill the other day he was unable to move it plus he was getting severe pain in the effected side of his chest right through to his back, he got power back the next day but has lost it a couple of times since i am realy worried that he is going to lose power to his hand can any one tell me what might be happening please

I think your son needs to see a specialist immediately.
