Hi Mandi,
Please excuse my tardy response to your question. I've been off this forum due to major health issues - sorry I missed your thread.
Are you taking about the Sternoclavicular Joint? It's a very important and complex joint for motion and function. The pain can be debilitating. My heart goes out to you.
I do not have a problem with that area, thankfully. However I have a close relative that has had surgery on the joint. How are you doing? What's your future hold?
Have you also posted in our orthopedic community? You may find more help in another community? We are more focused on chronic pain - but all are welcome here.
Here's a link to a MH that may be of help:

I wish you the best - please feel free to return to our community. If we can be of help - we'll certainly try. We certainly understand pain and it's components.
Best of Luck,
