well, i finally got my pain to go away, it was a matter of finding the right way to sleep. I have never slept on my side til after my surgery, I guess I didnt know what I was doing, I was sleeping with my arm/shoulder directly under me, it was putting pressure on my shoulder blades and spine in that area, now I put my arm up and out and don't have this issue anymore.
