Hi. I had a shoulder replacement surgery back in 2014. I feel like it has a success. I don't have perfect range of motion but the pain is gone. I have a lot of arthritis damage in my elbows so it was hard to do the therapy as well as I should have but it still is a lot better. My surgery was done at MAYO Clinic in Rochester.

So glad to hear you are pain free. I also am facing a rsr in March. The pain is so severe and I also have an elbow that needs replacing on the same arm, but no surgeon wants me to do it as the outcome is tenuous as I have chronic osteoarthritis . I am afraid but have no other option since pain killers don’t cover the pain. I am encouraged however reading some good outcomes. I want an artificial joint used without cobalt, have seen THE BLEEDING EDGE and although it was about hip replacements, the accounts were horrifying.
