Unhappy c7 help

so i have some form of thoracic outlet syndrome even though i cant get an offical dx bc all my tests are normal, cervical mri, emg, ncv, etc


my shoulders are winged and ive been doing strengthening exercises for my serratus anterior. my hands have all been numb "slightly gloved" for two years now 24/7.

within the last two weeks ive noticed my middle finger is becoming considerably more numb than my other fingers. my physical therapist said my c7 transverse process was 'slightly big' i mentioned this to my doctor and she didnt take it seriously

so if you guys were me, what would you do

get a brachial plexus mri
ct scan
sitting cervical mri?

i am not a good candidate for any surgery bc i have ehlers danlos syndrome but id consider it if one of my tests showed an overt issue
