Hi Sore, sorry to read you are having some trouble hopefully, this is just a glitch that will resolve quickly. I honestly think you are doing wonderful to be only 4 months post op from a rough surgery. Don't be so hard on yourself, give yourself a break. Friend of mine had thoracic outlet done and it was a good 6 months before she was able to get where you are today. I have seen others have the same surgery and most of them were just beginning to turn around at the 6 month mark too.

Maybe you are pushing yourself a little too much because I know how bad you want to feel good again. I really think you will make it too, because you want it so bad.

Take care and keep us posted.
