Default Doc question....

Ok Y'all - i went to see my neurosurgeon today - he told me all of the tests were normal. From what i've read tho, tests aren't always going to be abnormal. one thing he did was the Adson's Test - I turn my head to the right, my left hand is normal. Turn my head the other way- owwww - and the pulse decreases (i think). I believe he mentioned to the vascular/thoracic doctor about possible vasular TOS. is that treated anydifferently? i'm still learning. I'll leave ya'll with a quote that i really like - maybe they'll put it on my gravestone in a LONG time.
"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways – beer in one hand, whiskey in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming “HELL YEAH, WHAT A RIDE!!!”
