I have been off work a week now and I feel a lot better; the change is amazing. But I have to get back to work eventually. I'm facing the fact that I may have to give up a job I love. I don't know what I'll do if I can't work for Starbucks. I love my job and the insurance and benefits are unbeatable. One day at a time.

My primary care Dr started me on gabapentin. That made me so tired I couldn't function. Does the tiredness get better with time? Or is it time to try so something else?

Thanks,
Jess
Jess,

Hello. I am located in Greenwood and was recently diagnosed with bi-lateral thoracic outlet. I am currently seeing a PT that has treated a patient of Dr. Thompson's. My PT has given me stretching and strengthening exercises that her former paitent was given by Dr. T's pysical therapists. Can you give me an idea of what your physical therapy entails. I am curious if my physical therapy instructions are similar to yours.

Thanks,
Brian
