Jo,

It is hard to say what my average pain levels are because I was doing really well before the cold weather set in. When my TOS was at its worst a few months ago probably about 6/10 ( I do have high pain tolerance....had a c-section and took NO pain meds after ) I do have intermittent swelling in my left forearm, I can't believe I left that out, that is why they tested me for TOS. My veins become real distended in my forearm/hand and sometimes it hurts (have not had problems lately).

I work 20 hours a week at a PT office as the receptionist, unfortunately my boss has a policy that the PT's cannot work on coworkers.... so I am forced to actually go to PT, but all I really need is mobilization, I still do all the exercises they taught me but they are not helping right now. I can look in the mirror and tell that I am EXTREMELY elevated...oh well.

Thanks again for answering my questions, I greatly appreciate it.

Rachelle
