Being a upper amputee of 30 yrs. and recently(of 4 years) had surgeries on
full arm -carpel tunnel, ulner nerve relocation, bicep tendon reattached,and
labrium closer. Nerve and muscles locking up - problems continue in my figures
/hand numbing, fore arm and shoulder nerves. Any help is appreciated.
Ive been informed a 4 month waiting list just to see the consulting dr.
(hand and arm specialist).

Dear David,

I have had some major arm/elbow surgeries. I have also had a ulnar nerve transposition so I understand. My surgeon was Robert N. Hotchkiss, MD out of the Hospital For Special Surgery in NYC. A quiet but extremely smart, professional, does a good exam and ask a lot of questions. Not quick to cut, either. Which is surprising for a surgeon.

Hope this helps.
