So may factors to consider.
age, pain levels, sx levels, can you function (ADLs- activities of daily living) & at what level, is sleep affected all those and more..


If you get stalled out on PT improvement, you can always try another place or different style therapist/body-worker etc.
age - 31
pain level - very low (has not always been the case)
can i function? yes. can i do computer work? no. can i swim? no. can i weight lift? no.

sleep? not affected but i have to sleep on my back.

in short, i am OK. i was thinking maybe TOS surgery would cure me completely so I could go back to a computer job and also live my life a bit more. do people here believe surgery to not be a cure? something to be avoided at all costs?

i just want to make sure i am not missing out on the "secret pill"
