Hi @IJVCompression,

Recently I’ve had surgery with Dr. Hepworth on my Styloid and IJVS. Now I’m recovering from the procedure and traveling. The IJVS is already feeling improved. He dissected strangulating scar tissue from my IJV and removed the styloid remnant and they did a ballon angioplasty.  
I asked Dr. H also about STENTing and shaving down TP C1. He mentioned that he did that in the past but then figured out that this isn’t necessary in the major part of cases. For me this lesser invasive approach was much more appealing.
