Jo, thanks for the response, but TOS has been suggested and sort of explored, but no real definitive answer and no one has ordered any imaging studies, just an EMG which was done by a physiatrist who suggested some other condition which doesn't fit and he didn't fully explore nerve function to rule it out TOS, but made it appear as though he did in his report. My GP read his report and laughed at it. I guess he found some of his writings and opinions ridiculous, but I can't get any further info out of him regarding the report. And the NS is another story all together, so hence my continued confused state. ellena
