Just wondering if anyone on this site is in Australia. There are a lot of people on this site from America and there seems to be much better treatment for TBPI over there than here, so far as I can research. However, affording the health care as an international patient is not possible on a disability pension. So, if anyone knows of a doctor or specialist in Australia, who knows anything about treating Traumatic Brachial Plexus Injuries, I'd really love to hear from you. KT
