1999 - onset of symptoms
4/09 - successful 1st rib resection
11/12 - recurrence of NTOS
2/14 - anterior scalenectomy - worsening of symptoms
Hi Sec161,
I have bilateral- TOS with bilateral brachial plexus nerve damage, and left sided CRPS2. Had bilateral scalenectomies and rib resections. In 2008, had a scs implanted in my cervical spine. What would you like to know about it?
