Default Quick Question

I was diagnosed with TOS when I was seventeen, I am a gymnast. I had blood clots and had a first rib resection on my right side. I had painful scar tissue but for the most part, everything is fine, beyond some permanent numbness and a stent in my right subclavian. I am now 20 however I have had some numbness and pain in my left arm now. Also, because of my removed rib, I am slightly uneven which causes pain in my neck, back, and chest. Has anyone experiences any of these symptoms after surgery ( way after...)? Do many people suffer from TOS on both sides? Would surgery correct my uneven ness and possible TOS on the other side or just make me more weak? I appreciate any response thanks!
