Hi wings,
they did any surgery on you at Yale?, could you give me some info. like a phone number, what kind of treatment, what kind of test they do. I went there 4 years ago with my brother who has BPI in his left arm and what they told me they we do was transplant muscles to help him to at least bend his elbow. When I mention the pain he was having they said, they will amputed the arm, when I heard that I just back off, because we always hope that one they someone will do a reconstructive surgery on him and he will be better. Anyway, maybe they are doing more things now, do you have more info. on this, what kind of tests they do, insurance pay for this?. Thank you for your help,
Ingrid
