bpi only affecting bicep?

Post by admin »

I just found this forum today. It's a great resource! I was hit by a car 4.5 months ago while riding my bike. Since then I've had numbness and weakness in my right arm. I haven't yet officialy been diagnosed with bpi by a doctor who has seen me, but a neurosurgeon who has seen my EMG results taken at 2 and 6 weeks after my accident has said he thinks it is bpi. But, it seems to have only affected my bicep muscle. All other muscles in my right arm seem fine. In fact, the other muscles like the brachial and tricep have gotten stronger, and I feel like my arm has 70% of its original strength. Does anyone have any experience with a bpi where it only has affected the bicep? I went back several months looking for description of bpi's just affecting the bicep, but couldn't find any. I'm still hoping that the nerve will regenerate without need for surgery. But, I will probably go see a bpi specialist soon. I would appreciate any help!
