Question Pectoralis minor release experiences?

Greetings everyone...I'm wondering if any of you that have had a pectoralis minor release can fill me in on how you're doing afterwards. What was the recovery like, side effects (winging scapula's, muscle instability/weakness, anyone?), etc? I made it out to Denver recently and met with Dr. Sanders, who recommended a bilateral pec minor release, with a possible later scalenectomy only if there are residual symptoms. The risks from this procedure seem far fewer than the first rib resection and scalenectomy (my other option in my home state), but I'd like to hear more first hand experiences before I make my decision. I have searched the archives, but with only minimal results, though I have read some recent posts! Thank you!!!
