Husband had CBG, MRSA, sternectomy

Husband, 66, had triple bypass followed by MRSA and radical sternectomy within 10 days. Due to scar tissue they could not do an abdominal flap, but did the pectoral flaps. This was in November, 2009. He now is having severe left chest muscle pain (definitely not heart). Is this due to scar tissue building up? What can he do to relieve the pain? His PS has been little help, says he will have to put up with it. It is beginning to get him down after so many months of suffering and recovery.
