Default Anyone with elbow pain, hypersensitivity in elbow?

Any info on elbow pain in TOS patients would be very welcome. I have pain and hypersensitivity in my elbow and along forearm on the outer side.
Anything that helps resolve it? Could it be cubital tunnel syndrome? or is it something that some TOS patients just get from time to time?
My physician referred me to this surgeon who specializes in pheripheral nerve surgery, and he wants to do a PSSD, kind of an emg to see if my pain issues are coming from my elbow and radiating upwards towards the shoulder. If it comes positive, he was suggesting a cubital tunnel surgery.
I wonder if there are any therapy options first??
Should an EMG of the whole arm be done, what if the pain is coming from the brachial plexus?
I am confused, any input would be appreciated.
