Hi guys!! I am 3 weeks post-op today!! I had my surgery at Brigham and Women's in Boston with Dr. Raphael Bueno. He uses the transaxillary approach. Although, I am still having some "normal" post-operative pain, I am not experiencing any of my prior symptoms so I am already considering it a success. Dr. Bueno said when he opened me it was obvious I needed the surgery because it was so compressed in there and I had a lot of scar tissue. He is a wonderful, world renowned surgeon with a great bedside manner and I highly recommend him. If anyone has any questions about my experiences please do not hesitate to ask.

My pre-op symtoms (all on my left side) were pain in my shoulder area often radiating up my neck, pain in my pec, pain in my armpit, constant tingling in my pinky and ring fingers, pain in the hand under the ring and pinky fingers and then as the years went on, atrophy (muscle wasting) of my hand.
