I am type 2. My injury was caused when after an angiogram where they told me they would see me in 10 - 15 yrs. The heart and arteries are healthy....they blocked the artery at the cath entry site.
A week later I was back getting surgery to remove the blockage. They tell me that the lack of oxygen killed specific nerves in the leg, plus a part of the man made clot broke off and lodged in the calf. They said that to go after the piece of clot would tear the leg up creating more damage than the clot would. The leg has never been the same, and because they know which nerves, and how it was damaged....it is type II.

I have Type I, and it started with just a fall on my knee after slipping on a wet ceramic floor.

![]() Was it your femoral nerve? That's where my issue is. Of course it has spread beyond the distribution pattern for that nerve by now (I'm two years out from my injury date.) |
