Hi. I'm wheels80!

Looking for best rehab in Ohio. I am a C5/C6 incomplete quad, have been 30 years, I am moving new muscles (I'm sorry I forgot to mention that I never lost much of my feeling; skin, pressure, pain, etc), although moving new muscles, what is left is very weak aftter 30 yrs!

Looking for some input...?

I know that OSU has Dodd Hall, but it is kind of a far drive from where your at. You might try cleveland clinic or something like that.

I started my journey of rehab at Dodd Hall, it was amazing. I went back a few years ago and didn't get repositioned for over twenty hours, I don't know what it's like now. I we nt to the Cleveland Clinic next and they told my family to find me a physchiatrist because quads have no feeling below breakage point. Do you know what they're like now?
Thanks, wheels80

In Ohio, especially in the Cleveland area, the best bet is actually Metro. They've got much more extensive and active rehab facilities and faculty than any of the other centers in the area, and they're also the only designated model center in Ohio.

I have a blog... I've been writing since I was in the hospital.. But I'm keeping that persona and this one separate, so if you'd like the link, PM me
