Hi
I was wondering if anyone out there knew of support group for BPI or any type of support group for injuries or survival in Northern Illinois?

Thanks
Kath

Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: RTBPI - injured during a right cervical rib resection on 12/3/2008 for thoracic outlet syndrome. The doctor completely transected the lateral cord at C5-C6 Erb's pointe and the suprascapular nerve. Had a nerve repair done on 12/12/2008 to reattach the nerves. Did two years of OT. I have some issues with overuse issues with my left shoulder and also have come to find that my joints are hypermobile so I have instability in the joints which causes a lot of problems such as pressure and pain.

I'm from Indiana, but about a 1.5-2 hour drive from Chicago and would love to meet up with a group if one formed depending on how often you all met.
