Re: ? for those who have had capsulodesis surgery
Posted: Fri Feb 08, 2002 1:07 pm
Maia had the capsuloedsis because she had a posterior dislocation - and it also caused her a great deal pain. I noticed it about a year after her mod quad - I thought her mod quad 'grew back'. Her therapists thought so too. But as soon as Dr. nath saw her, he said that it was dislocated and a CT scan later on said the same.
Maia did not have winging which Dr. Nath said is a sign that there is a dislocation.
When he examined her I literally saw him put her arm in place and he let go and it dropped down. In massaging her over that time period we were waiting to go to surgery - I could feel it too.
Anyway - did you ever see the list of questions that we wrote together a while back?
