Hello!
It is an eternity that I posted in this thread. Meanwhile I have got some more troubles, but today I want to share a result with you: I was in hospital to check up the Thoracic Outlet situation. In 2005 the angiography showed the compression between the clavicula, the first rib an the artery. Now in the CT Angio the compression is on the 2nd rib. The doctor said he sees it clearly but this is not usual. So my question is: have you already heard about a TOS on the 2nd rib???? I thank you for answers and wish you a good day! Greetings!! |

Thank you for your answer.
No, I haven`t got my first rib removed. My surgeries concerned my right shoulder and the last one was a pectoralis-major transfer. But the doctors don`t see a relation between the problems of TOS and the shoulder. Nice to be here again! :-) Greetings Barbara |

Here's a page that might help you figure it out.
http://home.comcast.net/~wnor/thoraxves&nerofwall.htm Another thing is not all of us have everything in the exact same place. like the nerves & blood vessels could be a little bit different from the norm. Tam had double veins? wrapped around the nerve - pr something like that.

hello tied,
the compression is between the 2nd rib an the end of the collarbone. but it seems, that the anatomy in this area is a mess - and now I will have to train my trapezius-muscle to lift the upper thorax area. I also heard about things in the wrong place, but I didn`t care....and now I am concerned  this is not funny!Wish you all the best, Barbara |
