Can thoracic outlet syndrone cause muscle twitching???

Question

The doctors have finally diagnosed me with this. My left pec and sometimes left arm twitch. Also pain and numbness in those areas. I had kind of like awake seizures a couple months ago. Could this have been the same thing? A nerve being pinched. Believe me I'lve been to every doctor under the sun so no lectures on "see a doctor" etc.... Been there,done that. Less money now.

Answer 1

Apparently so. I saw a neurologist years ago for this, and he ordered c-spine films that showed a cervical rib.

Now that I know the cause it doesn't bother me. I was afraid it was ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease).
