thunder, why not go to sorehand (see it in stickies) and do a search for NM. see if a PT or neuro or massage person or anyone comes up with a good referral in your area. You might also want to think about ordering self help PT programs. 2 that I would recommend are Sharon Butler's TOS program that you can order online (see stickies) and Peter Edgelow's program. His comes with a video tape so that you can watch him teach you the exercises. Sharon's pgm is different from her book and has a progression of exercises that will take you through a long process. The book is good too but the the exercise program is current and very specific to TOS.


Still, I am having a hard time finding anyone local to manage my TOS and wonder if that is your case too. Although I can travel to Denver to see a surgeon I would like to have some doctor in my home town to act as my case manager, write scripts, find me a PT... Maybe a neurologist or a physiatrist. I am just out of ideas how to find someone here. I saw a local surgeon here and although he does TOS surgery he has no names for PTs, neuros, etc. If anyone can think of ANY suggestions please let me know!
