Hi Brandee

Welcome to the message boards.

There are many resources on this website.
You did not say what area you are from....

There are bpi specialist all around the US...
I left that message for you at ABC

I am right obpi and found this board 2 years ago.
I learned so much from the others on this board on how to take care of both arms and also to just have a place to vent with people who understand...

One of the doctors who treated some of the other adults here is Dr.Nath from the Texas Childrens Hospital... depending where you live there may be those who understand and treat OBPI...
here is a list from the Resources Section of this website.
I hope this will help you
