Teenager with OBPI*

Post by AHEIBECK »

Hello all. My name is Amber and I am a 16 (soon-to-be-17) teenager who suffers from an OBPI. I'm new to this website, but it appears that everyone is friendly. Just a few things about myself: I am very active! My injury is not as severe as most, so I enjoy doing a lot of physical things. I am a competitive cheerleader, which requires a lot of arm movement. It is difficult sometimes, but for the most part, I can handle it. I also play lacrosse, which doesn't put as much strain on my arm as cheerleading. I do get frustrated with my arms sometimes, especially when I look at pictures and actually see how "un-straight" my arm really is! Anyway, I am really interested in finding out more about other people's cases of OBPI and different correlations, so I am asking that you PLEASE fill out an anonymous survey to assist me in my Senior Research Project. By filling out the survey you are giving consent to allow your information to be displayed collectively as part of my research. The link is listed below. I look forward to your responses!
