Question about nTOS and surgery
Hi! My husband has what we believe to be nTOS (cannot get a straight diagnosis) and he’s been referred all over the place. Everyone tells him something different and has different ideas about what is going on. Then they realize it’s not that and he gets bounced elsewhere. He’s been told carpal tunnel, pronator’s, golfer’s elbow, tennis elbow, and TOS (among other things like blaming his posture etc). They did some sort of imaging that ruled out vTOS. One of the doctors he’s seen is a neurosurgeon. When I suggested seeing one of the top vascular surgeons (per the lists posted in this group), he brought it up to his neurosurgeon. This was their response. I suppose it would make sense but I just wanted to confirm: are people only seeing vascular surgeons for vTOS? If so, what is everyone doing for nTOS? Sorry for the long post and for my ignorance, I’m new here!
TL;DR: nTOS specialists/surgeons vs. vascular?
