Recovery from reverse shoulder replacement

Looking back at my visit summary, it was "Kenalog 40 at a dose of (200mg/per 5ml) - 1.5cc IL was injected intramuscularly to Left Gluteus Medius- without complications. "

She also prescribed oral prednisone tablets for a few days.
As I mentioned in my original posting, I went in to see the dermatologist with a case of hives and just noticed that my shoulder was feeling much better and I could lift my arm several inches higher than before. I continued with PT for a good while, and couldn't be happier with how my shoulder has done.

Thank you. That’s impressive that it has lasted this long without staying on the steroids.
I’m continuing with my PT home exercises; I’ll ask the dr about steroids.
