Hi Bill!
Oh wow!!! That is very interesting and gives me so much hope! Do you know or remember what the name/type of splint was? I used to work for an orthotics/prosthetics company and still have valuable connections there, so I could probably get one made. I am interested to trial your theory and see how it might work for me, and I’m curious about the intricate design/workings of this splint. Do you think it could still work for me, even tho it’s been so long?
Thank you so much for your encouragement, I’m glad you’re here!
Karen

Hi Karen, The splint is called "Elbow Support" It's made by IMAK - RSI. brownmed.com. It's about 12" long and about 4" in diameter. The diameter is adjustable. The doctor had it in his office, so it must be popular for him to keep them in his office. I believe it cost around $20.00.

Hi Karen. I just entered brownmed.com and discovered they are carried by Walmart
If we opened the same Walmart page, It's blue, and the 4th item on the right.
