Default I am actually better from PT!

Hi everyone,
I just got back from having my functional ultrasound test that measures blood flow to the hand with the arm in different positions. I basically flunked this in May. The test was supposed to be 45 minutes long and after ten minutes, the tech said we were done because he had enough data. When I moved my arm in any position other than hanging down the blood flow stopped. That was how I was diagnosed with TOS. I had had no feeling in my two fingers for three years and my hand was always cold. My arm ached after talking on the phone,etc.

Anyway, I am not 100%, but the blood flow is so much better! This is definitely due to the PT (twice weekly since May) and doing the edgelow protocol. I also am beginning to incorporate some of the denver protocol.

I can't thank you all enough! Going to MGH for full re-assessment in a few weeks.
