Default thoracic outlet syndrome.

Hi, I am new to this site. I am being diagnosed as having vascular thoracic outlet syndrome. I say "being" because I still nee to have other tests done. I have had a sowllen, blue (off/of) right hand for almost two years and my workman's comp doctor was taking care of my shoulder and didn't do anything about my hand cause he said it was coming from my shoulder, dud...Well wanted to get info/advise on others with same problems and and also to ask how is this condition treated??

Hello Susiet, and welcome to NeuroTalk.

I'm sorry to hear that you have TOS as I know how painful that can be, but we do have an active forum here on NT where others may be able to answer some of your questions.

Here's the direct link just incase you haven't found it yet. : http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum24.html

One big, warm, tight, hug, handshake and howdy, moose-size official type welcome to the site. This place is amazing!

I'm not familiar with the TOS, but we have many members here who are. Poke around some of our forums, one is specifically for TOS related issues. We have a great support system here... all you have to do is speak up. But more importantly;

You are not alone.
You are one of us.
And we are here to help.

Default Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Hello All! I am new on this site. I was diagnosed with T.O.S. about 6 months
ago by my Osteopathic Dr. I am now at my wits end because my symptoms are getting worse with no treatment in sight. Any suggestions on where i should go from here? I live on Long Island in N.Y. I just wrapped up 6 wks of P.T. and think it made it worse. Don't know where to turn. My Dr. doesnt seem to know how to treat me??? Please somebody help me..
