Hiya,

My name is Danzy I'm 24 and I just found out I have cervicle ribs on both sides.

I had a very scary time through finding this out as my dad has had lymphoma 3 times and my first thought was swollen lymph gland, also along with my gp.

I have seen a cons and he has conf the ribs not something I had heard of.

then all the shoulder/neck pain numb hands wrist fingers constant tense feeling around the shoulder made sence.

I have to have this out, and do feel a bit scared if any one has any advice or can share a thing or to I would be very greatful.

Thanx

Danzy.

HI Danzy,

Welcome. I see you have the link to the TOS forum. Come on over and visit. At the top of the forum we have a list of docs and other sites to help you learn about TOS.

As a fellow TOSer, I have read that recovery from TOS due to surgical ribs has better results than the other types.

Please let us know if there is anything you need.

Hi, Welcome.

I had to look up cervicle ribs. Never knew a person could have an extra rib.

You're in the right place. Keep poking around.

Again, welcome, and hope you feel okay today!!!!
