The surgeries were 8-10 years ago. The entire ribs were removed, the partial rib restructuring is what the Surgeon called it.
I think that stress is a major part of it. I am in a stressful job and any stress at work or home makes it 100x worse.
I saw Dr. Kelso at the Cleveland Clinic TOS clinic about a year ago and she said that all I could do was things to ease the symptoms and things to reduce the triggers.
Before that I saw Dr. Atasoy in Louisville, Ky. and he is the one that told me about wrapping my arm to reduce the nerve sensations.
I would love to find a TOS doctor to talk to and see if anything can be done to help me.
The Veterans Hospital in Huntington, WV did the surgeries.
