I am going to be see Dr Richard Hawkins, sometime soon. The one who has the youtube video. Also i think i saw on here that someone said that there is a permanent weight restriction. Have you heard that from your doctor and if so what is it. Thanks for the help

Yes, my shoulder does droop due to the trapezius palsy. I have some muscle atrophy underneath my arm. I have pain that runs along my neck and shoulder area when I use my arm. Scapula winging was not discussed during my consultation. Measurements were taken as to how far I can stretch & lift my arm. Following the surgery, I do believe there will be permanent weight limitations with this arm. Good luck with your appointment with Dr. Richard Hawkins - I'll be interested to hear how it goes.
