My arm has never been blue or white or experienced any other discoloration, but Dr. Collins' MRI/MRA/MRV showed compression of my subclavian artery. An ultrasound that I mentioned earlier shows it as well. A vascular surgeon will help you. I hope that you listen to the good advice given on these threads and weed out the poor and uninformed advice.

You probably have nerves involved and as long as you don't raise the arm you are not irritating it. Doesn't mean you don't have TOS. Sounds very possible. Google MR Neugraphy. I don't think you need another doctor to order it. They can probably just work it out. Hope this helps.
