Hi @spinginnie - Welcome to Connect! There are so many kind and helpful people here - many of whom have experience with what you are going through. I'm glad you came to this group. I haven't had a shoulder replacement so I'm not going to be much help except with moral support! It sounds as if @mimi99, @edithmiller, @farmgirl57 and @cathymay have had some experience with shoulder issues. Maybe they can give some insight on the recovery period. Are you in a lot of pain now? Are you doing any PT? I'm wishing you the best.

I train regularly and am in good health and fitness except for this shoulder. I do a lot of stretching and strengthening around the shoulder joint. Pain is mostly manageable with diclofenac, but I have a lot of functional impairment, putting on a coat, a seatbelt, getting my card out of the ATM, etc.
