Unhappy Does anyone know of a northwest area doc that does botox injections for TOS symptoms?
I have had TOS surgies on both sides. I found relief from pain that started up quite a few years later than the doc seems to think might be scar tissue. In addition to physical therapy I have been getting botox injectiona every 3 months. They helped just enough to lead a fairly normal life without pain meds or thoughts of surgery. However, that doctor has now retired and my surgeon doesn't know anyone in the Seattle or greater northwest area that does them. I would gladly travel east or south if there is an experienced doc in this procedure as long as I only have to go once every few months.

Thanks,
Karen

Dr. Seroussi or Dr. Campbell, both are located in Seattle

Dr Thomas Chung up on capital hill does them. He did my scalene block and is super nice and did a great job.
