Hi, that sounds annoying, what elbow are you using at the moment then? Can you add the elbow? Also, how is the arm connected to you?

I have a myolectric arm from ottobock and hate it with a pasion. I was going to get a powered elbow and hand. My prostetic guy tested my muscles and said according to the website I didn't have enough for the elblow or second channel. I just got the powered hand. When I got the arm finally he turned up the sensitivity and I could open the hand using the front and back muscles in my stump. I was told that I didn't have enough stregth in my stump to use the powered elbow or channel. I feel robbed.

Nice arm man, the movement is amazing! I read an article recently that was talking about how the technology involved in these prosthetic limbs is really just getting underway. I, for one, can't wait to see how technology revolutionizes this field of medicine.

Great effort in a difficult discovery process. The cable hook works best for me.
