For me it was the muscle tightness and then the spasms caused pulling on my c spine vertebra - that caused the vertebral artery symptoms.
a chart about it on this page- http://www.tos-syndrome.com/old1/newpage12.htm

I guess I'll give it a whirl:
1) constant burning pain in shoulder 2) pain when holding arms out or up. hand cramps up (claw) when lifting arm over head. 3) stabbing pain in shoulder blade 4) general pain all over my shoulder and upper arm 5) slowness or loss of dexterity in right hand, feeling of swelling in hand. only five? I could go on and on... |

TOS is a dx of elimination. I was told there is no "tell tale sx" specific to just TOS. That's why it's so hard to get dx'd.
Yesterday some idiot neurologist told me that TOS doesn't cause PAIN!!!!! I told that it does cause pain and there are alot of us with TOS who know this to be true. I'm so tired of "doctors" who think they are God and who don't have the knowledge they think they have. |

TOS causes pain so high that some of us have considered suicide. We talk to eachother and comfort eachother because some of the neuros are nuts. I was in a hospital for TIA watch and the neuro put her dirt shoes on my bed, shook it as I screamed, and told me, "well, the only thing you can do is go to Germany and get a Ketamine "wash" of my spine.
There are TOSers here who can tell you whether Germany was worth the cost!!! Watch your blood sugar. NOW i am on oxygen, as my blood oxygen during the night dropped dangerously low. The injury is the most painful and misunderstood condition, and the CDC doesn't even have a head count! ONE BLESSING, it is cyclical, and if you get to know what works for you, and what doesn't, you can keep trying. Get a work com attorney and ask your doctor for home health aide. I thought I was going to die a month ago, and my nurses helped me back to life. Bless you all. |
