I have an acquaintance who has AK and AE amputations. The AE has been revised several times, unsuccessfully, in hopes of him wearing a prosthesis. The AE residual limb is now a source of phantom pain. This is a young man with a family who doesn't want to sedate himself. My question is twofold. Is there any unconventional phantom pain treatments that you would care to share with us? Do one of you fine gentlemen have the info on contacting farablock inc.? We both thank you.
