Back after 6 years
Unfortunately, after 6 years pain free, I have had my symptoms return. I had the rib-resection and scalenectomy in 2000. I have been off all meds since 2001 and 2 months ago I started with the pain in my neck, shoulder and right arm. I started PT this week and taking percocet again which I am not happy about. It took me a long time to get off all my other meds. It was not a pleasant experience. I am wondering if anyone else knows if this is common for this to happen. I believe the symptoms started after a very long car ride from NJ to FLA. We did it in 2 days but I did 99% of the driving and it was very stressful. On our return, slowly the symptoms came back. I have an appointment with my surgeon, Dr. Togut in 2 weeks. Just wanted some input. Thanks, LinJane
