HI,

Had surgery on 12/14 but no rib removed. Scalenectomy. Happy to help in any way. Doing good after one month. Still too much swelling to tell if totally successful, but some symptoms are better.

here is one site I used when researching the surgery.

Also my doc has some information on his site www.nervemed.com

Important to choose between whether you need vascular surgeon or neuro. I had vein compression but impreoved it through PT and then had neuro do surgery.

Lot's of sites on the sticky post at the top of the TOS forum too.

Hope your search goes well and let me know if you have any questions

Let me know if you have any specific questions.
