this chart shows a the TOS cause/effect symptoms - it helped me to understand it better-

My chiro did say that the symptoms will cross over too, because the messed up nerves send the signals to muscles and they will do weird things, also the messed up blood flow will affect the muscles also.
{ just a short breakdown of what he said- it was a couple years ago when he said that}

[Lots of tingling that goes down the ulnar side of my forearm into my hand, burning pain from my wrist or forearm into my palm, throbbing pain in various fingers (usually around a knuckle), throbbing pain into the back of my wrist by my thumb as well as my forearm, pain into my armpits, pain at elbows, and varying degrees of hand numbness with mild swelling, red discoloration and warmth, especially at 180°, which took some time to dissipate. After the ultrasound and then the physical exam following it, I felt a bit beat up and my arm symptoms were flared up for the next couple days. The symptoms that were not reproduced included the fact that I cannot wear anything binding, such as elastic sleeves like those found on hoodies, as they make my wrists and hands feel like they will explode or something. Also, I have grip weakness, and wrist and hand (finger) pain when typing.]

the weakness I am pretty sure is nerve related
the slight swelling is probably venous
{i had to stop wearing tight sleeves and watch - I only had slight swelling, but it really bothered me}

when i raise my hands/arm they will go white & cold from the blood flow stopping and then flush pink & warm as blood returns when I lower them.
