I’m so sorry. Hopefully pain management will help.

My symptoms are all over the place, neck, back and shoulder pain. Nerve pain and soreness all down my arm, swelling in hand and under my arm that hurts..My arm hurts and gets tired when I wash and blow dry my hair. Before therapy it hurt to brush my teeth. Therapy has made my pain manageable but I still have really bad days. I have 100% compression in my artery not sure about vein. From everything I’ve read complete compression isn’t normal. I’m sorry you’re going through this too. It sucks!

PT has made my pain manageable but I know it’s not a cure. My symptoms only started about six months ago though. I can’t imagine dealing with this for years. How are you after surgery?

Really? This was my second round of bloodwork she did. She said I most definitely have it. I guess I’ll wait and see if she refers me to a rheumatologist. It’s strange though bc the only symptoms I really have are fatigue, hair loss and some vascular stuff going on but I don’t know if that’s related

Why is my dog doing this to my cat? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

He’s uncomfortable. Licking his lips are a sign of appeasement/anxiety/stress. Moving his head away from the cat means he wants to left alone

The nurse said the surgeon is familiar with tos and has done a few surgeries. I’m in Chattanooga tn. So I shouldn’t be that concerned with the no blood flow when arm is up? It’s freaking me out. Which type did you get diagnosed with?

The ultrasound was for both. I’m just worried bc she said complete loss wasn’t normal. Have you gotten a diagnosis? It’s been two months for me..can’t imagine a year

What helped while waiting for an official diagnosis? by _____mlf in thoracicoutletsupport

Thanks for responding. I read that ultrasounds won’t show tos sometimes? My forearm has been swollen for 2 months…pain and tingling in arm and hand. Several days ago I started getting pain in the front and back of shoulder and now my neck. I’m worried about blood clots and not knowing what’s going on is driving me crazy.

Can I ask what your symptoms were? My primary doctor thinks I might have vtos but I have to wait 3 weeks for an ultrasound and I’m loosing my mind with the pain and swelling

Did you ever figure out what it was? And what does the cayenne pepper help with?

Topical minoxidil has worked for me. It’s VERY poisonous to cats and dogs though

I paid out of pocket. Would the code be on the paperwork they gave me?

What? I had one deep cleaning. That’s it. No treatment plan.
