@Leah - I recognized Dr. DelGaudio’s name so I searched him using the magnifying glass icon. There are several discussions written by people on our forum who saw him &/or had him do their ES surgeries. Below is the link to one that will be of interest to you, but you can search for others as well. A bit concerning is @eddieh 's comment that Dr. D doesn’t believe in vascular ES. We have another very experienced ES surgeon on our list who is also of this same opinion. Unfortunately, it’s very close-minded of them. I vaguely remember removing Dr. DelGaudio from our doctors list because his incidence of misdiagnosis (i.e. blaming symptoms on things other than the styloids) was pretty high. We try to keep doctors on our list who don’t tightly define ES based only certain symptoms & who acknowledge that vascular compression can be a component of ES. That said, it’s still worth having the consult as perhaps he’s changed his mind on that topic over the last few years:
