Hello,
Have you had a MRI recently to rule out any cervical or T spine issues? We also have some threads on testing for TOS or more ruling out of other causes, their is not 100% foolproof test that will show TOS - unless there is extra cervie rib or other bony anomalies in the area. How is your upper body posture? When you look in a mirror for a side view is your head forward &/or shoulders rounded , hunched or forward of the body? These forward of the body postures can close up the Brac Plex area and cause vascular or nerve symptoms. Can you get a full & comprehensive evaluation from an advanced physical therapist? Or an expert chiropractor that has additional knowledge of soft tissue problems? Also check our sticky threads for much more info & other medical TOS related websites post #1 on this one is loaded with a crash course of info - http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread84.html
