United Brachial Plexus Network, Inc.

Hi everyone!!
Sorry I haven’t been very active on the boards lately I have been very busy at school. I was wondering if someone could give me a link to the website that explains the pain of a brachial plexus injury. I think the address goes something like www.homestead******.co.uk*(the stars are the things I don’t know). The reason I ask is because I remember this link being posted in the past and it seemed to depict the severe pain perfectly with out actually feeling it yourself. I am currently at university and one of the Psychology professors is very interested in phantom limb pain. He is a specialist in pain and has read about BPI's but has never actually talked to a person with a BPI. Anyways without going into depth I think the text contained in the link would help allot in his research. I think it was Jenny that posted it before.

Hopefully someone can help
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi Andrew

There are a couple of typos in that article on central pain, but it has been read and approved by Professor Rolfe Birch, a world renowned tbpi specialist so it should be ok on facts. Things have changed even since it was written, I do a lot of my own research on bpi/neural pain so if you have any questions post here or mail me by clicking on my name.
