                        My mother has had TOS for about 20 years   she has had 3 surgerys that she has gone   in for to try to relieve her pain over the years  she we in and about 5 hrs later we were on  our way home. They tell her there is one nerve  doing this if they could just find it she   wouldnt hurt anymore but that means exploratory  surgery which she is not up to yet. Hope this help you and good  luck
