Thanks so much for your input, I have already been to Dr.Jason Lee at Stanford. He sent me to Peter Edgelow who in turn sent me to my vascular surgeon in India who had done my first scalenectomy for ATOS on my right side which is still doing great. After post surgery symptoms I went to see a vascular surgeon Michael Conte at UCSF who in turn sent me again to Peter Edgelow. I couldn't progress more than the basic core program with Peter as I would go into pain with his progression exercises, I still do his core program twice a day and it gives me some relief, but Peter is severely ill now and doesn't practice anymore and I cannot communicate with him anymore.

I think I will also take up the advice on calling Dr.Ellis and see what he has to say.
