Personally I would only opt for the surgery if there was impingement/compression to the artery or vein, neurological symptoms can subside/improve if care and life style changes are made!!!!!! Recovery from first rib excision can be pretty tough going for some..... me especially
I'm almost 4 months post op now and still having to take things easy!
Keep in touch, it helps to chat
Try to enjoy Christmas and enlist as many elves as possible to help with the Christmas prep and grub etc. NO LIFTING heavy shopping bags full of pressies.
