Default TOS after surgery
I had 1st rib removed in sept of this year for arterial TOS and currently still have a lot of the same symptoms. Can anyone tell me if the symptoms will just take along time to go away or will this be something I have to deal with. Dizziness went away but still a lot of shoulder and neck pain, tingling in fingers, and difficulty using left arm.

They went under the arm as well. There might be something wrong with the shoulder because I can not do alot of the therapy. I can not hold left arm out away from my body.

who performed this surgery and where? One of my dr.'s states this procedure is now considered primitive by today's current standards. Your surgery was performed fairly recent?

I had it done at the Cleveland Clinic. just found yesterday that I have a torn shoulder labrum in two areas and a cyst. I am hoping this is part of the problem why I can not get shoulder to go back.
