When I bring up to TOS to my surgeon (ortho) and pain management specialist they basically just chuckle and say im too young and its extremely rare, they aren't even open to trying a scalene block or botox, they want me to do a subacromial decompression and "see how I feel." But I know that its not my problem. Anybody know doctors in my area?
Top 2 Canadian surgeons are Sean McFadden and also Anthony Salvian..he's in Vancouver, I had my seroma drainage with him.
