Re: question about pain,..
Amputation will NOT help. Pain is "phantom pain". Talk to your doctor right away. It could be caused from several sources.
You might want to look into the DREZ procedure. It has changed my life forever.

I also heard terrible things about DREZ; many possible complications can happen and it doesn't last forever. After hearing I chose not to go with DREZ.
However, I am very glad you had success but there many cases posted on this board regarding the negatives.
Defintly talk to your doctor before doing anything and do your research!
Good luck and we are hear for support and to listen.
