Smirk Bilateral Thoracic Outlet - arterial

I have just had surgery for rib resection and scalenectomy on the right side 7 weeks ago due to critical compression of the artery but when they did the MRI angiogram there was also a narrowing of the left side.
Has anyone else got bilateral arterial TOS and if so were they able to avoid surgery on the other side? I had a surgeon say its just a mater of time and I may need the other side done in the next 5 years. Is there anything I can do to improve the left side and is there things that will make it worse?
