Default Sweet, sweet confirmation!

Went in for a doppler test today. I'm positive in my left arm (worse side) for both venous and arterial TOS and may be positive in my right for minor arterial but they said it could just be a normal amount of compression. I have neurogenic symptoms in both arms but there's no real good test for that, but it can be assumed that's going on too. The findings completely corroborated what I've been describing! I see Dr. Lowe on Friday and I can expect a surgery date soon after. The tech. said he usually doesn't like to wait very long with arterial TOS.
I'm over the moon. They're sure now that's what's going on and they've actually done some real testing. Finally, a confirmed diagnosis with proof! Guess what, guys? I'm not crazy! This really is real!
