    Awesome I will be sending positive vibes and keep you in prayers. Your videos are what informed me what expect as a bka and I learned as I continued my journey thru this life and just to say thank you.

    You are a major inspiration for me, though I just recently subscribed to your RUclips channel, I can already tell that your videos both past and present will be a wonderful thing to help me learn to cope with some things when I become an amputee.

    Congratulations on getting your knee, I hope you can get your pains sorted out without meds. Found the pains subsided after a while of using my prosthetics but I'm sure you know how things worked out before. As always love your openness to talk about the problems. 💞

    You're doing great so far. I'm glad you got a usable knee. Pain may be with you till your residual limb gets accustomed to this new and unexpected strain on it. After three years I still have soreness issues and have to go a day or two without using my prosthesis.

    I use the same knee for about 5 years and so far is good. But i am thinking always for another one.maybe Rheo knee Ossur. Price is a problem. Christina i wish you all the best!

    I guess that an MRI scan would be useful to ascertaining the presence of a neuroma, its location and size. If any interventional surgery is applicable, then investigation in trans muscle innervation at that time be considered, as it reportedly does much to reduce phantom pain and recurrence of a neuroma.

    If the nerve pain persists, maybe osseointegration might be something to look into?

  • @wayner7111
    @wayner7111 2 года назад

    Just a quick question if I may. During a below knee amputation are the fibula and tibia fused together or are they left floating? Thank you.

    • @AmputeeOT
      @AmputeeOT  2 года назад

      Depends on the surgeon. It can be done both ways.

  • @morgancalvi6675
    @morgancalvi6675 3 года назад

    Two questions: 1) did they get the neuroma thing solved and 2) did you have nerve blocks before and after surgery and a TMR during surgery? (Was that 3 questions 🤔...sorry if it was)?

    "I was afraid I would drop him".
    Nonsense you would sacrifice your own body for those you love, it is the way of a parent.
    But a bit of caution never hurts.
    Good on you and the new leg, you seem to be getting along.

    The pain does not get any better, it only gets way worse and the only fix is a TMR surgery.
    I warned you way before you had your AKA that the TMR surgery would have helped your BKA pain. Take the time to look the surgery up as it originated at Ohio State University. The pain you were experiencing was not a good reaon for an aka and having your femur cut to have your knees line up was also not good.
    Your doctor should have brought up all that I have mentioned.
    Just wait until you get the phantom pain that feels like a electric knife is being hammered into your bone and twisted , they come on about every 40 seconds, last for 3 seconds and can go on for hours, I am always afraid the cops are going to get called from me screaming out.
