Did you have cervical ribs as well? I guess i'm scared a lot about Post- OP and recovery, i live a little over 2 hrs away from Dr. donahue so the ride home is also a great concern. The symptom that eats me up is the pain/ burning in the back of my neck and Rt. shoulder, did you have that? if so was that one of the symptoms that went away right after surgery? I'm feeling pretty defeated at this point, it's like when i come to terms w/ a symptom a new one shows up. Last night my husband noticed a small lump on the bottom of my right collarbone (very painful) and i've had this dull pain in Rt. shoulder, then my arm will turn red and my veins get enlarged this will last about 30 sec - 1 min. then go away. Now i'm concerned that i may have a blood clot
