Thank you so much -I appreciate the information. It is well worth having. My tests for inflammation were normal. My new thing is pain under the clavicle . It stabs me when I use my arm a certain way. It is different then the nerve type pain. It keeps happening more and more. I can feel it in my neck too.So here I go again. You really are so very kind. Thank you ❤️I hope you are feeling better🙏🏻

@noanswers Have you heard of thoracic outlet syndrome? It is a compression of nerves and blood vessels between the neck and chest, and it has some tight spots under the clavicle. I work on this myself in physical therapy. Most doctors miss this because they don't understand it, and physical therapy can help a lot. Here are some links for information. I do myofascial release for this and it helps. Raising the arms over head or moving the shoulder forward usually aggravates TOS. Usually a neurologist can diagnose TOS. Here is the link again about MFR therapy.

Do you think TOS could be an issue for you?
