Ive done a little searching here. Even found a terrible thread from a great poster (Obbay) whose DD died during surgery for TOS (Thoracis Outlet Syndrome) . I have also seen a lot of positive stories as well and we are seeing one of the best in the country for this issue. Just curious if any of our other members have any experience with it.
A little background: DD told me last Sep that she felt a pop when doing long toss. (Outfield fence to home) She played through it all of fall and then during winter BBall, she had her feet taken out from under her on a rebound and landed flat on her side dislocating a rib and hurting her pretty good. we started spring ball but it was quickly cut off and then COVID .... we started ball back in late may and played 30 games from June to mid July. She played all but 2 games, sitting those due to pain/numbness/tingling in her hand and elbow. We’ve had two opinions and two MRIs on her shoulder and elbow (both clean of issues) and both point to TOS so tomorrow we are visiting with Dr Pearl in Dallas.. She did go to a local specialist and he found her rib still out of place, along with her colllarbone and sternum And he put out back and she felt great but it didnt stick. As soon as she started working again, it came back so now we are looking for a permanent fix.
Here is a little video on Dr Pearl and how they fix it The issue.
