Default WOW,The DR list makes all the difference!

I finally called Dr. Lowe's office (Hartford, CT). I'm so impressed just by the telephone conversation with the receptionist that I know I'll be in good hands when I get there. She asked if I had any testing so far, I said just a few raise my arms and check for pulse tests and an MRI and a chest x-ray. She wanted to know the refering Dr. (I told her my GP because I didn't know what to say.... I'm referring myself, I saw his name on here or maybe I should have put down the chiropractor??? He's the one who diagnosed it in the first place????) and she is going to send him an evaluation form to fill out and once they get it back the first step is usually to get an ultrasound done. Wow an actual test, someone who knows what TOS is besides a specialist.


I asked the last thoracic specialist if there was some tests I could take and he said no, there are no test for TOS. I know from reading on here that there seems to be quite a few but again the dr shuffle.

Is this what anyone who went to a specialist who knew how to treat TOS has done before? Curious and I think I'm on to something
