However, I think (for what ever its worth) that when you have TOS it messes up your entire bodies 'balance', feet go numb, head hurts, whatever... Since I have vascular TOS I believe the entire right side of my body is a little 'off kilter'. For example, even though my vains in the shoulder and upper arm are clearly negitively effected by TOS, nobody can explain why the veins in my right leg are distended as well. Probably just vericose veins starting, or its just one of those things...

The neck effects how you carry the rest of your spine. According to the Bio Cranial treatment system pioneered by Dr. Robert Boyd, misalignment of the cranial plates can be one source of chronic hard/soft tissue maladies. Through this physical therapy technique I have returned health in my right leg back and a great reduction in my Parkinson-like symtoms but I'm going to see TOS specialist, Dr. Richard Sanders in Denver CO about my continued TOS symptoms in my right upper extremities and shoulder.
