I am an amputee myself, and I can tell you that it does take time to recover both physically and mentally. My entire right arm, shoulder and shoulder blade was taken from me in a job-related accident.
When you live thirty-two years of your life and suddenly take that kind of loss, it makes for a huge impact on your life. The nerve damage was extensive, and I have now lived for 28 years with phantom arm pain. In other words my right arm feels like it's still there. I just feel extensive tingling and some pain that never goes away.
There is medication for phantom arm pain that works for some amputees, but unfortunately it doesn't work for me, so I quit taken it during my first year without my right arm.
I would be dead if it weren't for Life Flight from Herman Hospital in Houston Texas. Thank God for them and the doctors and nurses that were on duty that day.
Not much good news. Went to my neuropathist on Wednesday for a series of tests. 'Yes', I have nerve damage and 'no', the doctor looking at the results couldn't understand why. Essentially, they ran an escalating electric current from various spots on my lower leg and foot to toes to see how I responded. I highly recommend this as a means of torture.
On the downside, I am becoming resistant to my pain medication, so life sucks coming and going. My psychiatrist upped my Gabapentin from 300 Mg to 400 Mg [3x a day] and it isn't helping. Woot? I'd kill for a decent night's sleep.
Thank you for asking. I really wish I had better news.
