I have had reverse shoulder replacement surgery on both shoulders at Mayo, MN. The orthopedic shoulder Doctor does great work. Dr. Sperling

Greetings @wwill, I am wondering, did you have your shoulder replacement in April? How is it doing? How are you doing? May you safe and protected.

I have had three reverse shoulder surgeries ( one had to be redone— my fault) . I’m doing fine now. The shoulders are not totally normal like before, but they are pain free and allow me to do many everyday tasks now except “ backcomb” the cowlick in the back of my head. I can even swing dance a bit! It takes lots of PT to regain strength and range of motion. I worked on it religiously for a few months. I am pleased overall with the results. Mayo-Rochester has an outstanding shoulder surgeon. I am 77, by the way. Younger people might recover faster.
