They also go with many other syndromes or things that could be wrong. You need a top TOS knowledgeable doctor to sort it out. Many test are done to rule out other things, there is no test that diagx TOS per se.
Finding a top doctor near you is the best thing. Some test can be done and symptoms treated in the mean time, but most doctors never see TOS and only believe it is vascular or like my PCP thought it is only with a cervical rib. Di

Also, injured/muscle imbalacnes in the shoulder area, cause a lot of symptoms in the neck as neck muscles are not built for the kind of load the arms put on them. |

I do also have polyneuropathy that came on at the same time. I was just trying to sort out which symptoms were from what. I just recently got the diagnosis for TOS on top of what I have, and it makes so much sense for the kind of pain I am in with my arms, shoulders, and neck. I do need to find a doctor who specializes in this. |
