Dear friends, I have not been on in awhile do to some problems I've been having I've seen one post that may help about not being able to breath right and why my voice sounds so raspy and I struggle to breath short winded. Problem #2 is this I hope there is help! I have no heart problems in my family none what soever ever since my operation for TOS and my symphatic nerve cut for RSD my legs have been off and on swollen as of late they have been severely swollen and in pain even to the touch my feet are off color (purple) and cannot fit in my shoes or compression socks I'm so swollen. My question is this can this operation cause heart problems I'm highly worried as I said no heart problem in my family history whatsoever! Now I hear I could have congestive heart failure going on not what I want to hear. I have or am in hell with work comp have no Ins. since I'm in work comp hell and they don't see how it could be part of my injury. I say this I was healthy no problems before injury no heart problems in family now my breathing is bad and my heart may be going I see my family doc Friday who will work on payments to help me . Has any of you had this problem? I have TOS and as you also know RSD in upper body please HELP! I'm sorry I have not been here in awhile but this is why, I'm scared really scared I need help....... so this is my SOS.. Thanks
