Thank you SO much for this post. My TRSR is scheduled for May 19, and I have been very worried about it, especially the level of pain to expect. I know everyone is different, but now I know I may do fine. This is my first joint replacement, and I need several more (other shoulder, both knees).

Best of luck to you. I don’t know if this is significant but I know of two people who had shoulder replacements ~ 5 years ago who had pain. Another friend had one in December of 2024 with very minimal pain. Possibly the procedures and newer hardware might result in less pain? Again best wishes for you.

I had a TRSR done about 1 year ago. I had a nerve block that lasted about 24 hours. I did have post op pain after that but it was manageable. I’m very pleased with the results. I have some limitation with backward movement but it’s minimal. I’d say that being very diligent with PT is extremely important. Good Luck!
