it really irritates me tho that doctors just dont give a crap about my wrist. i have tendon problems in both arms and i know part of the reason i havent been able to double click on a mouse is because ihave fluid in the top part of my wrist..if i have fluid there seems like id have it in other places!!

im not your typical tos patient, not even sure i have tos. definitely not scalene tos. i had/have pec minor syndrome but its intermittent unless i somehow injured my bp there and this caused 24/7 numbness.
Hi there
I have bilateral cts 6 mos postop tos surgery & bi tarsal tunnel 1yr. Peroneal n. Comp. 4 yrs. I just had a skin biopsy & sm. Fiber blood test (very exp.) & emg /ncs again. All normal! And 2 diebetes test - normal. I read when u have nerve comp. Above (neck) its common too have nerve comp. in arm /hand. Cts is common. Don't worry ur self sick.
Take it one day at a time.
I was very surprised to find out I have tos due to extra c-ribs, after 8 yrs of sx &pain. Think with all the xrays & mris I had of neck & chest someone would of saw these ribs.
A Dr told me they just weren't. looking, tos is not common & having extra ribs is very rare.
Lucky me! I had neck cushion bf tos surgery, neurosurgeon said All my sx were coming from my cspine. I had my doubts, but he said surgery was absolutely nescessary, as I could become paralysed. Nerves are complicated!!
