Default Anyone have an MRA?

I saw my rheumatolgist today he thinks I have not only nerve damage in the left arm, but a compression of the axillary artery. He's going to treat me right now with Neurontin. Has anyone here had an MRA test, supposed to be like an MRI but of the artery? I'm so sad now. The TOS symptoms are back ALONG with the nerve pain. RIght now, for me, surgery will not be an option. The first one was bad enough, I don't want to go thru that again. I'll deal with this as long as i can, unless of course I begin to feel worse. I have noticed increased dizziness in certain positions when I turn my neck, which doctor thinks is related and that the compression is high up in the neck/shoulder area. So anyway, I"m curious about this MRA. Thanks, Becky
