Has anyone ever seen Dr Stoxen, DC for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. He is in Chicago and he doesn't believe in surgery for TOS. He only sees one patient at a time and works on them for up to 16 hours a day. For out of town patients he works on you until you have no pain.

I believe I found his name on this website. I had surgery that fixed part of my TOS. I have been told takes long time to recover. I would pay the 2,500 day if it cured my other TOS issues. Just wondering if it really works. I am only 45 with a 5 year old and I want my life back. I spent the last two days in bed due to the burning pain in my left arm and headaches. I want to live again.

I would be suspicious of anyone who says he works on you until you have no pain. TOS doesn't work like that. No one can guarantee no pain. Even for those with good surgical outcomes, I've heard very few claim they had no pain whatsoever.

Stoxen claims to have seen 30,000 TOS patients and not one had surgery.
I watched his lecture, he definitely has extensive knowledge of TOS but I have a very hard time believing his assertion. |

Interesting video. I watched the whole thing. TOS is more complex than most people realize.

30,000 patients is a lot. It seems funny to me that no one here seems to know much about him. It seems like people would be singing his praises.
