Thanks for your reply.
So - according to what you said-- having your blood flow stop when your arms are directly overhead -- is NOT a definitive sign of TOS. Thanks - its good to hear it again from someone else. Unfortunately, I need to hear things multiple times from multiple different people before I start to believe it... for better or for worse at this point.

Some doctors think i have TOS and others are not convinced.... I am also not so sure what to think either.
I don't have visible swelling or color changes. I have some left shoulder/neck pain and then some really extreme pain in both hands And, on my right side, the only think that hurts is my hand/wrist area. I also don't have any numbess or tingling but have found my hands to get very cold... I was exercising the other day and while the rest of my body was hot and sweating, my hands were ice cold.

So - have you had the doppler ultrasound test? Did you have it more than once? Did the test pick up any changes when you started to feel better?

thanks again for your reply.
