Welcome to NT
You have come to the right place for info, support, and helpful caring people who truely understand from experience. TOS is difficult to diagnose, treat and live with.
I have had bilateral stellate ganglions. they are done in a very controlled setting so do not be afraid. There are risks, as with any procedure. I did not think it helped me, at all. It made my symptoms worse.
It may have been used as diagnostic, I'm not sure. I just didn't get relief from it.
Let us know what you are having trouble with and someone here has been through it. We're here for you.
No questions are too silly here.
Here is the TOS forum link:

Take care...
