Hi,

my issue started back in July 2013 when I started experiencing pain and burning in my right hand and wrist while using the computer (my job). I started physio but the pain got worse and started spreading right up my arm. Tingling, burning, loss of sensation on my pinky and ring finger. I went through several diagnoses : De quervain, carpal tunnel, cubital tunnel, Herniatic disc pressing on nerves. I had done nerve conduction studies for carpal and cubital tunnel , MRI for my neck , x-ray for my neck, ultra-sound for my wrist and elbow and everything came back normal. The last specialist I saw suggested I could have TOS. I can't lift my arm above my head without losing the sensation of hand/arm, burning and weakness of my arm and the same happens if I extend my arm out. My neck feels stiff, I sometimes get headaches at the back of my skull. Using the computer, watching tv and driving all give me pain and stiffness in my arm , as well as tingling and numbness.
I had an x-ray done to check for an extra rib and came back normal. I also had a duplex ultrasound to check the flow of my veins and it seemed normal too. I had a slight reduction of the flow with my arm lifted but still within the normal range. The upper limb specialist suggested I see a cardio-vascular specialist. I am lucky that WorkCover is paying for all my visits but I am not sure I am closer to a diagnoses than I was last year.
Could this be TOS even though both x-ray and ultrasound are normal ?
