Well, my surgery was far from a sucess unfortunately. During the procedure, the surgeon accidently cut my subclavian vein and artery. the rib resection was then put on hold while they tried to figure out how to stop the bleeding and save my life. I had 4 surgeries over the next 5 days, 14 units of blood were given to replace blood lost throughout those surgeries, and I ended up wth an arteriy graft and vein stent, as wellas a serious brachial plexus injury that has left my rioght hand and fingers without movement or feeling. If I could go back now, I would have skipped the syrgery all together and lived with the pain from the TOS.
