My EMG/NCS were negative, but I had a doppler study that shows that my pulse diminishes when I hold my arm in different positions. Not sure how 100% conclusive this is for TOS, but it isn't normal
My mri was negative until I had the dye injected with it (arthrogram I think). My emg shows slowed nerves done 3x (every few moths) and I just had the vascular doppler study showing no pulse in either arm in certain positions. The weakness in my 4th and 5th finger is what my doctor was concerned about. Has not improved. He is supposed to contact me tomorrow to go over doppler study.
