I would assume that the area I live in would have one specialist between Wake Forrest, UNC or Duke medical. I'll keep all posted about the results when I get them.
If you have a plexus injury that is that bad, you should be looking at someone who does grafts. Out on the left coast, there is a guy..Stevanovich (sp) I think his name is...who is know for repairing bad plexus injuries with nerve grafts. But at 9 months, I think you are close to the end of the window so you better hustle if you are thinking of going that direction! Otherwise I think you are just stuck with where you are at. Oh...also if you are trying to get better imaging done of the plexus, an MR neurogram is probably something to research..
