i was contacted last week by a 34 yr old woman who has had RSD for 12
years - affecting mainly her left knee which she has braced in a fully
extended position - after yrs of people bumping into it & many braces which
offered varying degrees of relief, she has opted for an above knee
amputation - perplexing as this may sound, it is her choice, it is scheduled
& i was not asked to offer advice / comments on her decision - she would
like to know of anyone who has had experience with RSD post amputation or
experience working with someone in a similar situation
help ! fast - thanks in advance - heather.
