heading to St Louis

Post by tjones »

I haven't been around much these days, but just wanted to let you know my son (who just turned 21 last week), is heading to st louis to see Dr Mackinnon March 10. He started PT and OT, getting some use of his fingers, but nothing in his wrist at all. Unfortunatly, the man who shot him still hasn't been found or arrested yet. It just burns me to no end that someone can hurt another person like this and get away with it.

Just wanted to get a little info. We are supposed to get an EMG done before we go and I'm not exactly certain what this is. Any info would be helpful.

I know that I say it frequently, but stopping in here seems to help us tremendously. Thanks

Hi Terri,

Check out this site for info about EMG's..http://www.teleemg.com/
It can be a bit hard to navigate since there is a lot of info up there (not all relevant to BPI) but worth the effort. Hope this helps.
