HI there!
Wow, I am glad to find this site. I have gotton to the point where I really need to talk/hear what other's have to say. I kept thinking that if I joined a chat board, I would end up obsessing or negative, but here I am and I am happy.
I am 33yrs old. I have TOS, had rib resection in Apr 06 after 2 mva's, May/Nov 2004. They took the 2 branches of scalenes on left side also. Not much into typing tonight as the whole reason I was searching was b/c I am sore from foldig half a load of laundry and utterly frustrated. I was happy to see that I am not the only one who cannot do so many things. One girl posted she cant shop or do anything with arms, that is me, everything triggers it and I am dealing with people that dont understand it.
So, here I am and thank you for a great site, I will definatly pass it on to my clients who suffer pain also as I teach pilates rehab.
MAny thanks,
Michelle---did I post in the right spot?? LOL, sorry, new at this

Smile Hi Michelle

Hi Michelle

I'm new too and in Alberta. I also needed to hear/talk to others with the same problems as me - tough to find people that understand.

You're sure right about being frustrated - hard to stay positive when sometimes there doesn't seem an end to the pain or limitations in activity.

Where did you have your surgery? Did Dr Bill in Kelowna do it?

Michelle (Toby)

I also just wanted to say "hi".

I've been in a pain flare - kind of three that kept sort of bleeding into another one...

I haven't any wisdom for you, but loads of support and love. TOS is not so great, but the people here sure are!!!
