Hello to all from a fellow TBPI person

[bellis]

I agree that you need to sue! I had a simple shoulder surgery in 1997. They fixed the tendon but caused BP. It changed my life. I'll suffer with pain the rest of my life. Using the effected arm causes severe pain. 100s of follow up procedures and yet no one diagnosed the problem for the next 7 years. Then it was too late to sue. I'm unable to work and barely maintain my independence by driving a little each week. For me the emotional stuff is a constant struggle. The financial loss was devastating even with a disability insurance policy. You need to sue. Even if your not the main wage earner you need to net at least 2 M after attorney fees and expenses. Do your homework and find the best med/mal attorney in your area. bob rweman.bellis@gmail.com

Ms. Stang,

Hi and welcome! I'm a fellow Michigander. Where do you live? We're in Vassar. My husband, Rick, was injured one year ago on June 30th in an auto accident. He went up against a Salvation Army truck in his Taurus (he lost). He suffered a laundry list of injuries (broken jaw, facial fractures, L1 fracture, ruptured spleen, inner ear fractures, mild traumatic brain injury, and the biggie - left TBPI). He was at Hurley Hospital for one month and did outpatient rehab to gain his leg strength back. Most everything has healed, with the exception of his BPI.

He had an ulner nerve graft in January at University of Michigan. His doctor is Dr. Yang and she is excellent. You can check out her credentials online. There are other Michigan people on this board who have used her as well. If you don't have the means to travel to Mayo, I would recommend Dr. Yang. Please feel free to email me if you have any other questions.

Take care and don't give up! This site has been a huge support system for us all as we embark on our TBPI journey together!

Kim
Wife of LTBPI

Hi Ms. Stage...Post 22 yrs. TBPI...one thing I call tell you for sure. The Doctors do not know much about this injury. You are the Dr. teaching them for the most part.

i admit, i didn't read this entire post. but, i can recommend a Dr. who might be able to change your lives. his name is Dr. Rahul Nath, he is located in houston,tx, and he is a genius. he is on the forefront of bpi. he has developed and patented several procedures. my baby was injured during birth. i contacted Dr. Nath about 6 months after my son was born. i was sceptical of him, because i had never heard of him. but this man knows what he is doing and has discovered surgeries and treatments for bpi that i had never before heard of. the best thing i ever did was to take my son to houston, tx, to see Dr. Nath. he is an angel sent from above. my son is now doing things that all the other drs said he would never do. wendy-josieclove@yahoo.com
