Dear List,
I have a 42 year old female trans-femoral amputee 21 years post traumatic amputation. She is an accomplished user who wears a suction ischeal containment socket. Here is the question. She has terrible muscle spasms about twice a year that last for 1-2 days. They disappear as fast as they come.
Does anyone have any similar patients? What treatments have proven beneficial? Are there any published articles or reports that deal with these periodic episodes? Any input or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
