Well, it is the third time I've had a rib resection scheduled. Once with a doctor in town that I decided not to go with. Then once with Annest/Sanders who decided they weren't going to do it nine days beforehand after plane tickets had been bought and all arrangements had been made..... |

With Dr. Donahue? Apparently people say he's used to complicated cases, so you shouldn't fear getting dropped then.

Okay, so I might have found a doctor 50 miles from me that does the botox. He is a pain specialist. My arm started going cold and I went to the ER in that city, well the vascular surgeon in the ER told me not to have the surgery. Hey told me he would send some emails and his office would call me Monday morning. Well, the next day he called me with the name of a guy, Dr. Peter Piperis whose website says that he does "scalene block with fluoroscope". I will call first thing Monday morning.
In that case I will probably put off my surgery, for at lest one year, and hopefully indefinitely. |

I found. Doctor here that does botox, but only as a diagnosis. They are going to do bilateral anterior scale botox at 90 days from the first shots. I still have surgery scheduled. Surgery is sort of dependent on my finances at this point. |

[QUOTE=Eight;1082919]Yes, both I believe. He made a special note that they weren't going to botox the pec minor because I had the pec minor release done in December 2013.

I saw a Dr Lee a Hand/BP nerve Ortho Specialist at mgh recently & told him what Dr Sanders says that 75% of people who have tos also have Pec minor syndrome. Dr Lee said that's bunch of bull!!!! He only did this surgery on one pt. Who do u believe? Is all this info. On google just to get your business, makes u wonder! Thanks tor the info. |
