I, am 72 male with aka bilateral amputee.I was blown up with an IED, in 2006. ,I have not been able to be fitted with a prosthetic. Having been a broadcast engineer for 40years on over 80 countries, I have been forced to accept life on a wheelchair. My dear sweet friend go for the technology.. Bless you my dear friend. CLIff.
Had an extra surgery to trim my tibia bone down because of rubbing on my socket... about eight months ago... made it smoother and I was wearing out liners... interesting... always ways to make adjustments... I chose to adjust my flesh and bone and it worked... wish you the best. Been an amputee myself since July of 2018 when I lost my left leg below the knee... appreeciate your video... having issues now ripping liners I walk so much... giving me ideas to talk to my team about... thank you.
Liner for the win! I always had issues with sores where the edge of the socket rubs on the skin, no matter how many adjustments I had done. Since getting a socket with a liner, that doesn’t happen anymore, because my skin is protected.
Doesn't it fall off once you start sweating? I've always hated them and will only get a skin fit now!
@@411adaptivegolf It does, but it also was happening with the skin fit when the stump was sweaty, so it doesn’t make it either better or worse in that aspect. I have a short stump so there is not much to hold it no matter what suspension system I use (unless I use a belt which is uncomfortable)
No. It gets really sloppy but doesn’t fall off.
I just wanted to say that little wiggle you did at the start was super adorable
I’m a puppy!
Lol....my husband said it was kinda sexy, when she wiggled!
@@cherylvaughn2215 he is not lying
im very impressed how well this technology has come for people with this new lifestyle they have. love the high positive energy and gives me great hope if i ever get i to this situation. i think the future is only going to make things even cooler too
Wishing you the best of luck in finding the best most comfortable fit.🙏
OT was just a few months ahead of me with her BKA. I watched her from the hospital. I did wheelchair archery too. It gave me hope that things could get better.
Wishing you all the best. I can tell you're a fighter!!
I was like, "hey, my orthotist has those same chairs" and then I saw you were at a Hanger Clinic, so that made sense.
I had my fitting today for my below the knee amputation and the bottom of my limb hurt so bad I couldn’t put any weight on it. They’re making me a new one so hopefully everything goes good. I’m nervous
We will always support you my brave lady honestly I love you and hope you will be great hero of these world one day and you teach me one great lesson to me unforgettable
God bless u sister.........
You are a true Hero. So much Happy and smiling. May God always give you his love. And you live a healthy and prosperous life. Ameen.
That's so great
I'm an aka also! Osteosarcoma at the age of 12, limb resection along with a knee replacement and chemo(7 96hr treatments) amputation at 17 because i broke the metal stuff! I'm now 38! Skin fit all the way, I've had just about every type there is!
It didn’t work for me because I have a lot of loose tissue. It just plops off.
Right on, i look forward to watching your journey! Subscribed and liked
I had osteosarcoma at 18 I’m about to amputate though due to complications
deep respect.
I wish my Dad had one of these new limbs, his was all metal and it weighed a ton.
First nice job and well done but i have some thing to add .. 1 i have the impression that the foot need more of out rotation and if u can see during her walking especially " loading response" in her phase gait she lean to the side of prosthetic so i think she needs abduction of the component "foot and knee" just little to balance her gait except that every thing is good
Mis respetos para esta Guerrera y su fisioterapeuta. Una bendición con los avances en prótesis y otros para un mayor bienestar .
I am going from a RBKA to a RAKA in a few weeks. Do all the sockets for AKA come up that high? Or will a lot of that be cut back? And between vacuum and suction, which do you prefer? As a BKA I have only ever had the option of suction and corset because of the shape of my residual limb. I have wanted to try vacuum for the circulatory benefits though…
The lateral wall should be high and as a first time user of AKA socket they will give you vaccum I think
It would not matter how well it's fitted at the end of the day it must be uncomfortable 😍🇭🇲
Hi, my name is Andrey, in 2018 I had an amputation below the knee and three days ago the same as you, i.e. above. How long did it take you to learn to walk in a new prosthesis, please write back, thank you.
🙏🌺❤
I am sure i speak for a few people but that little leg wiggle was sexy ahah
Have you decided what patterns and colours you want on your socket?
I'm a above the knee amputee and it's been 2 years since my amputation...I went with a new prosthesis and he has literally screwed up 5 different sockets so I'm still in my first one and I've been waiting 11 months now to get a proper fitting socket....anything you can recommend I do?
God bless you
Hi..I understand that you had a myodesis done first, then you had a TMR done. The question I have, is the end of your femur moving around inside your residual limb?
I am schedualed for a new cast made and a new socket. My femur moves around inside my residual limb. They did a myodesis when they did my AKA.
Yes, it moves around. I actually had a myoplasty and then a tenodesis. My femur moved around after both.
Love you 💞
Ur amazing, plus beautiful!
Gud vork, молодцы, хорошо и аккуратно работают.
Keep strong .we are here in this life to be tested.i wish you a good luck in your journey.
Does any part of the lip of the socket has pressure
Just found your page. I’m also an AKA. I think think the fact these prosthetic companies match modern 2022 bionic legs to pre-1950 sockets is a joke . There is definitely a need to come up with a better socket. I would think that can’t be hard to do with todays tech aka ..3-D printing. I don’t need fancy titanium parts, Make it out of carbon fibre, it’s super light and strong. No socket I’ve had in 5 years maintains vacuum. There hot and why wouldn’t they be having to wear a Neoprene liner? I wear a belt that holds the prosthesis on my limb or it’ll fall off if I ride a bike or if I sit down for a long period of time it’ll move & the slightest movement and my walk is all off.
How does that vacuum type socket ( one with black tube ) work out for you? I can tell you’re prosthetists does his job a lot more professionally than mine . As a new amputee I knew nothing as I’m sure you didn’t.
As I was lying in the hospitals Trauma then Physical & Occupational therapy thinking how am I going to do this what’s it gonna be like and all I got was a brochure that said the most important thing is your relationship with your Prosthetists! Mine to say the least is not professional at all.
I have to work with this guy until I die so I stopped causing waves and just did my own homework and became my own advocate and stopped caring about what they thought of me,. I don’t care if they hate me I don’t care if they like me. I’m getting the best components on the market for my needs.
It’s leg came with a fixed ankle, took 3 years to fix that then ordered a water leg and again they put a fixed ankle on it I’m like how am I going to put a flipper on this and do laps in a pool buddy I’m not getting a waterproof leg to walk I’m getting to swim😢. Getting that ankle switched out to one that can pivot took an act of God.
I’ve tried getting an ankle that has a movement in it but I still have the same one I got 31 yr ago ,And last dec I broke my stump and now I just waited from dec when I broke it till we’d just past to be fitted with a leg I got fitted with two year ago that test socket he tried it felt better than the old socket ,at the time but I’m now in agony and I’m slowly giving up ,But I ain’t not now after all this time so up there today ,no holding bck ,
I wish you the best, and just wanted to say you look like you would be a fun great woman to get to know
Stay strong Girl...!!.. You are beuty! 💪👏👍Respect from România 🇷🇴
God bless you dear make ur life more easier💔💔💔🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰
LORD I pray that she would get a brand new foot
May the Lord help her and strengthen her
Do you have a video of your going from a below knee to above knee or at least the explaination.
Hmm I was interested to see you walking on a check socket (at least you were in the bars) I say this because I have on a few occasions seen them fail catastrophically.
Certainly when ever I use a check socket I am very wary indeed.
🌹🌹🌹
God bless dear
I lost my leg below the knee, a year ago. I've not been able to wear my leg. I wish I could.
Is it the Prosthetist? My guy guarantees its fit or he starts over. It could just be how the nerves are that its too painful. My pinlock socket was always painful but I wanted to walk... That and I still have pain meds. I still feel the pain from what happened before each of the 3 successive partial amputation's I had. Now I have negative pressure and its much better, not like a real leg but its as good as it will get. It does not help that I've become very heavy. Good luck. I know Drs dont like to give meds though in my case it had continued from the festering wounds through the 5 years of Ostio so my Dr felt it would not be right to stop them. You may not choose to be on them. My Father was an amputee years ago and he never took to the socket. They gave him a POS wooden leg for years. No wonder. Before he died they finally gave him a proper socket with a carbon foot but it was too late. Don't let it get to be too late. Keep trying. Seek professional help. The system is happy to forget about people like us.
😍❤️
hi how do you get a cheek socket I never had just into the main one
he see's everything
Когда у нас будут для инвалидов хорошие протезы
Наверное тогда, когда у руководства страны поотрубавают и руки и ноги!
на западе все за ваш счет, бесплатно там не лечат. даже посещение врача платное.
cool can help people with disabilities even if it's a prosthetic leg, the important thing is to be able to walk again 👍👍
Yes
Hello where can i buy such joints I need one? Second hand
eBay

I am from Nicaragua, I am so proud and impresed of you, y are so beatifull, so tenass I want To know more about you, god bless you in great, wow tx for be who you are. My name is Oscar barquero you are awsome
Maravilha parabéns kiss Brasil !
Tamer for you all love, respect and healing we are from Iraq 💗💗💗💗👍🌷⚘🌻🌲🌱
I. Like It
I'm a TK, since 06/20, one of the best comments l have heard so far is, walking is a rhythm action.
And so nearly all of these rooms never allow for this fact, and you are supposed to make a decision based on that.
Factor in, you maybe spending upwards of £20,000, and l find this totally unacceptable.
My fittings are modelled on a 3D scan for my socket which l approve, this however did not seem to be on offer for you.
Thanks God .
Good

I can't do the skin fit socket.
эта девочка молодец.
Hallo...how would you tell the differences between the Blatchford and the Genium ?? And thank you for the Videos *thumbup
The Genium is the knee. The Blanchford is the foot.
@@AmputeeOT Oh...i know...i mean the Linx system/Genium...i saw that you have the Linx system...;)
It's does help alot people with those mecanical legs this but alot people doesnt know the price for it..and some doesnt have insurance,maybe they need more information about payments rangements.. let them know
The things that make us laugh when we aren't expecting it. Haha. Ok no more check socket fart jokes. Well for now. lol
Would you ever wear your leg without the liner? I noticed during the fitting you were testing it without one...thinking that could cause sweating/chafing, etc without the liner over a few hours use. Like wearing shoes without socks, etc. Not easy getting the leg right for sure.
The skin fit works the best. The liners tend to fall off with sweat and then you have to remove dry and redo! For me anyways there isn't any problems
Me parece que la prótesis necesita un poco de más altura , porque desvía la columna para el lado de la prótesis , disculpen pero esa es mi opinión , no soy un técnico ni especialista en la materia , pero aplicó la lógica
Cute
Adaptations...!
I am so frustrated with my current Prosthetist. I'm ready to move the next. No Hanger
Which Hanger do you go to? I use the one in Manhattan.
the socket is lose and also the iscial hagh more in the socket
How much cost is it
How much cost is what?

Yes I have a comment I have a amputated leg above the knee just like yours. I'm going to make me a prosthetic leg out of recycled plastic by hands no machines..., Just using my artistic abilities my thoughts my mind and that's what I'm going to design a right prosthetic leg.using a white oak limb from a oak tree for the center and covered it with recycled plastic materials to form a prosthetic leg.
אפו זה גם אני סובל מאוד ורוצה פרוטזה

I love you ❤️my love
you make it hard when you hop
Why so many fittings. Is this normal?
Totally normal!
It’s not like hearing aids earmolds at all. There they just quirt some stuff in your ear and call it a day. Still breaking in my newest earmolds (have to everytime I get new ones-hate it) 🧏♂️
Yup, I have a hearing aid earmold too. Sockets are definitely nothing like those!
@@AmputeeOT
Question for you:
I saw a video where your prosthetic foot was in Birkenstock sandals. Did you need to modify the shoe or foot to ‘orthotically’ fit?
No, I just put it on.
I am prosthetist Can l be of some help?
May Allah Almighty make her and all of his creatures like her normal and Also protect all of his creatures including me from all types of diseases, syndromes, deficiencies, disabilities and incidents through out the whole life and afterwards as well..... آمین ثم آمین یا رب اللعالمین یا ارحم الراحمین
I am normal...
@@AmputeeOT wao MashaAllah,nice to hear that,May Allah Almighty keep you,me and all of his creatures always normal..... آمین ثم آمین یا رب اللعالمین یا ارحم الراحمین
