No extra rib, but I have a congenitally narrow spinal canal and my costoclavicular space was very narrow. All the kings horses and all the kings men (scalene block, multiple therapists, etc.) could not get my 1st rib to budge.

This was derailed, lol, but:

1. Waterskiing
2. Waitressing, I have dimples, they brought in some decent tips
3. Embroidery
4. Complicated clothing items, changing earrings, jewelry
5. My husband, 5 years ago, lol. But good riddance.
6. Any career advancement
7. My whole extended family pretty much thinks I'm just lazy
8. Pretty soon my job
9. Possibly my boyfriend, but if he sees me through my two upcoming surgeries I will be endebted to him the rest of my life
10. Home restoration projects, including painting, I have the know how to do a hell of a lot, but can hardly lift anything for long.
11. Sleep, lots and lots if sleep
12. My sanity, okay, well not exactly, but if you tell everyone you hurt for ten years, and they don't believe you, it kind of makes you view the world in a jaded way.
13. Reading, too doped up to focus long, books too heavy to hold.
14. Sleeping with on my belly.
15. Laying on the grass with my arms behind my head watching the clouds.

Wow!!! The majority things you've listed is me. Lol, lol I still have my dimples, and my wife is still here. Lol, lol Sometimes I wonder why. :0) I'm an athlete and handyman, so it's hard not playing my favorite sports, building and fixing things. The joy of TOS!!! :0) I'm praying for you as you go through your surgeries.

...and working as a caregiver for elderly clients-couldnt push wheel chair or assist with walking.
Heres a list of more stuff thats difficult because of TOS-
