I would like to thank everyone for their responses. As I presented my case I
have current problems with the prosthesthis now because of permanent volume
changes but overall I had not had much success with suction sockets and with
suction liner I use regarding daily volume changes and not able to simple
sitting or rotational torque during golf swings.

As for the current socket the majority responded that they did not believe
my prosthestist was sufficientlly working to tackle the prolem since there
are know products that can be filled in the right place and get you by until
I am ready to choose the product I am looking for in the future. Quite a few
said go to another prosthestist!

As for what might help me in the future the following were some of items
without identifying manufactures since its hard to tell who is a directly
connected to the product.

1. vacum assisted systems for aboveknee
2. lanyard system
3. water volume system
4. mas socket
5. suction liners (what I have)
6. suction sockets (what i tried)

Again I really appreciate the efforts and if I missed mentioning some
suggestions I am sorry.
Dave
