Hi there, thanks for thinking of me, I haven't been on the board since I posted, I have been doing ok, again my case is different then most in that I am not in that much pain, I am almost the same as I was before the surgery, except that it hurts in my right chest when I sneeze and my neck muscles on my left side (the side I had surgery) have been tight. This is my problem, during the day on almost all days I feel great, basicly symptom free, its when I go to bed that I have the problem, when I wake up in the morning, including this morning, I have a hard time closing both if my hands, I mean serious problems, thats why I went to Dr. Ahn in the first place, after he did some testing, and testing from Dr. Collins and Jordan, they all thought I had TOS and Ahn thought I had it bad and that I needed to have surgery to avoid muscle atrophy in the future. Its just hard for me to believe that the surgery decompressed whatever what being compressed in my left side, when I have the exact same symptoms as before, equal on both sides. I am going to see Dr. Reil next Tues to have my sutures taken out so I will ask him questions then. I did email him a couple of questions be he never seems to get back to me. Again thank you for your support, I hope that you are all doing well today and that you will have more good days then bad days in the future. -Joshua
