WOW Thanks. I feel so loved! And, not alone! Thank you all for your information.

It is hard for me to type, so, I have to keep things short.

Sea Pines 50....I agree witht the ortho thing, his PA didnt even hold my arms in the correct position to get the absence of flow. And the doc seemed to classify the TOS patients to painters and army people. However, he seemed supportive when I got the diagnosis from the vascular doctor. Thanks, I do feel better about my vascular doc now. I think I would like to get another opinion from a neuro doc.

Tshadow....thank you so much for the testing info! That really helped.

I have had normal EMG/Never Conduction Study, normal CX, MRI shows herniation at c4-c5, not touching the cord yet. Previous surgery appears healed. I had an abnormal vascular study, that said I did not have TOS, but a stenosis. My vascular guy disagreed. That was last year, before surgery so I will ask to repeat it now. The 3D MRA sounds like a blast! We will see.

Oh, I live in Georgia. Anybody got any referrals? PT and docs.
