When I asked him if he'd treated any patients post-op that had these surgeries, he quickly nodded his head yes and moved on. Something tells me that is not the case. I am curious for those of you that have had the same procedures what PT post-op was like for you. Also, I am in the Dallas area so if any of you live here and have a PT that has helped you, please let me know Thank you in advance!

Depending on your diagnosis and specific case, some surgeons don't recommend pt. sounds like you need to find a therapist who is experienced and can get permission for you to speak to other TOS patients he/she has worked with. In the wrong therapist hands, you could cause more harm than good! Expect and get the best therapist, you deserve it!
