i am so glad to have found this site. i have had a NCS and EMG as well as a simple xray and the preliminary diagnosis is TOS. I am scheduled for an MRI on Feb 6th and hope to get a defenitive diagnosis. So far it appears I have a Cervical rib and my symptoms are getting worse. My main question is if they decide to do the surgery, how long can I expect to be out of work? I am a sofware trainer, so no heavy lifting needed. thanks in advance for your answers.
