Default The UCSD Center for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Has anyone visited this clinic in San Diego?

I currently live in Los Angeles and have been seeing various doctors at UCLA.
My TOS is getting worse and really need to get relief. I have tried physical therapy and all types of conservative treatment. MRI of the cervical spine is normal and there were no abnormalities with my chest Xray. I will be getting a scalene block soon to confirm TOS.

I am to the point where I want surgery. I am 28 years old but I have been suffering from this since I was 26, most likely due to weight lifting.

I know that there are injections and botox treatments but I am afraid as I have read stories of serious injuries.

*edit*

Back to my original question, has anyone tried attending "The UCSD Center for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome" or have heard any thing from this group?
