Wow. You have described my exact experience. In fact, I am not thinking that at times, I feel similar symtoms on my left side, but hard to tell if I am being paranoid. I will raise this with my surgeon when I finally get an appointment. I notice I have a bulging vein on both arms (where previously I only had it on the affected side/arm). In addition, I feel the same chest pain on the left side that had only been exclusive to my right/affected side. Good thing I am on coumadin or I would be more concerned. Will be interesting to see the outcome once I have the opportunity to investigate. Good luck with your journey.
