I've had TOS for 5 and 1/2 years. I had a left rib resection and scalenectomy almost 3 years ago. Over time I've gotten worse. Surgery took away a few symptoms (tight feeling in hand and near elbow), but all the nerve symptoms remained and I developed migraines.

I went to a new pain doctor last week, and he's looking at my neck again, and mentioned MS. He also said TOS is a "controversial" diagnosis. We've all heard that before. So, anyway, I've had something for 5 and 1/2 years.
