By night time my chest and shoulder aches but a slight improvement. I saw my surgeon today who had an ultrasound done. He stated that the blood flow is good on the left side. I still have compression on the right, which has not had surgery yet. That might be down the road. I will continue with therapy for a couple more months and see the surgeon again. I was recently approved for my disability through my pension, but have not seen a penny yet. My health insurance will be changing soon which is going to be the biggest hurdle. I had 100% coverage for the past 19 years and never had to pay a penny. The health insurance through my pension is going to cost me $1400 a month and it is pretty much a 80/20 plan. Well not much of a choice because I need coverage with this TOS and my MS.
