Re: Looking for answers

I am almost 4 years since my injury. I am just now beginning to wean myself off the percoset. I am still taking lyrica and tramadol as needed. I have found some pain relief creams that are very helpful. I like Salon Pas and horse linament (sounds weird). I am eager to hear about muscle transfers.

Re: Living with a TBPI

Do you play golf? Before my injury, I used to play (terribly, but I enjoyed it). I have limited use of my right hand and can not grip a club. My husband wants me to learn to play one handed. It was difficult to learn with 2 good hands. Any suggestions?
