Confused New Member w/ Questions...

Sorry if I ask questions that have already been asked on this forum. I have tried to read through as much as possible but hopefully someone out there can help me.

I have been diagnosed w/ TOS in my left arm from a wrestling injury that occurred over 3 years ago. The onset was sudden when I was playing basketball 6 months after the wresting injury. I have seen seen a prominent sports therapist who was very familiar w/ TOS but his sessions helped but symptoms would soon return. I have a couple of questions in regards to symptoms.

1. Has anyone else out there had chronic headaches as a symptom?

2. I have had a pain that has slowly moved from about my elbow area and has made it's way all the way up my arm to my head and has affected the vision in my left eye. Has anyone else had that? I have had MRI and cat scans and show no blockage that would indicate a stoke indicator.

3. I am in Texas and have not seen Dr. Noon (that is on that list) but called to get a consultation. Is he good by anyone's experience.

4. How long does it take to recover from surgery?

5. After surgery are there limitations on activities you can do w/ that side? I have heard mixed reviews. One doctor told me there was a possibility of full recovery.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
