This is thru Dr. Jordan. Dr. Aufiero just does the neural prolotherapy which I will probably try first. I like the idea because it is diagnostic and it will be good to know once and for all if the pain is just the TOS or not. I hate being experimenting but I guess every procedure is.

I am still feeling better since starting to see Dr. Ando, so maybe I wont even need to do these,but my goal is to start working part time in July and then hopefully go back to my regular work in the fall and that will certainly be a challenge. The chin-tuck exercise is really difficult for me and gave me bad shoulder pain, I have to talk to him about it when I see him tomorrow.
