Hi! 7 months post op reverse shoulder replacement. 6 months of therapy and still weak and in pain. Dr recommends a nerve block. Does anyone know how long this will last?

I haven’t had that, but it sounds terrible. Hope you can find some relief.

Hello @joannee - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I moved your discussion and co@mbined it with an existing discussion titled, "Recovery from reverse shoulder replacement" - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/recovery-from-reverse-shoulder-replacement/.

Members @jprust, @jojo751948, @rainerhans, and @michelleperryman all shared their reverse shoulder replacement and recovery experiences in this discussion and may be able to offer you some insight.

@joannee, like you mentioned, nerve blocks are temporary, has any insight been presented to you as to why you are continuing to have so much pain? How is the mobility in your new shoulder?
