Im doing great since my left sided surgery back in Dec04. I was in pain for awhile after but had to have another surgery that had nothing to do with TOS. So its been 2 1/2 yrs and now as long as I dont type too much or drive for too long Im pretty much pain free. I dont take pain medicine anymore..just meds for my psych health..lol...I wont lie it was a long hard road to where I am now but I think with a little faith most of us can get here.
