Google it. I put the link on but had to remove it since I'm a newbie here.

I had to revisit the thread I started in December of last year.

I was so desperate when I got my diagnosis and the pain was/still is so disabling.

The moral of the story is, find the right dr and get the right testing and find out if you have arterial or venous issues as these can not be fixed by any amount of PT, massage, acupuncture, anti-inflammatory diets, etc.

These types of treatments can actually make arterial TOS worse and you may be at risk of blood clots.

Best of luck to everyone!

I actually just spoke to Dr.Stoxen on the phone for an hour last night. He talked for 56 minutes of that time. He barely asked me any questions but said he could knock my TOS out in 3-4 days for $1,500 per day.

The lack of questions made me nervous...he is about 60 years old and talking to me for an hour at 9pm at night....it just seemed strange.

If anyone else on here has had a positive experience from his treatment please respond.

If I decide not to give his treatment a try I need some direction on specialists or doctors I could go to...
I've had TOS symptoms for over 2 years now. I had a pec minor release last fall and it helped minimally. I'm still having issues and now I'm on my 5th different PT.

I've tried massage, acupuncture, cupping, dry needling and most recently a cervical epidural at C5/C6.

I live in the Minneapolis, MN area. SO if anyone has any recommendations I'm all ears at this point. I am really trying to avoid the first rib resection as I'm not sure it would really help.
