Intermittent symptoms are very unlikely to result in positive nerve conduction tests, and in my experience essentially never positive in thoracic outlet patients.

I would recommend at least having a vascular clinic that treats TOS do an ultrasound evaluation of your thoracic outlet.

It's a dynamic study and can potentially diagnose any structural sources of compression. In addition, can evaluate for vascular thoracic outlet syndrome which is far more serious.

If you live in Baton Rouge I highly recommend Vascular Clinic.

I actually saw Dr Gwin and we ruled out vascular TOS but he said it could still be nerve related TOS.

It is very frustrating because nobody can give a definitive diagnosis or treatment plan
