My wife is so tired of Law & Order and L&O Criminal Intent reruns that she bought me a pair of wireless headphones to wear at night to bed.

That's funny, Marc. My husband rolls his eyes at some of the stuff I've watched. He just smiles and moves along.

Thanks, Marc, that makes sense to me. I had full rib removal and anterior scalene removed with one supraclavicular incision exactly 2.5" long.

Never. I didn't know I had any rib problems (other than 1st rib) until the massage therapist said something and then Drs. Spousa & Ando pointed out all of the subluxations and torsions.

Sounds like his technique is superb. What did he do with the middle scalene?

Marc, given what you've told me, I'm guessing he left it hanging since only the anterior scalene was removed. If you listen to his talk that I posted, it sounds like there are a multitude of different ways the scalene muscles can be divided anatomically. I'll try to remember to ask Donahue when I see him in several weeks.

I drove today! My wife is in a wedding this weekend and I was able to drive to the airport and back without a problem (12 miles each way). I've stopped taking Valium during the day to make sure I can stay alert. Luckily, I don't get any side effects from the narcotics (Hydrocodone) except constipation.
The numbness in my hand and fingers is fading away and my strength is steadily returning. I do still have numbness from my underarm to my wrist. I've been doing nerve glides and hope Dr. Angle clears me to return to Dr. Ando for therapy next week.
