I am now 9 months out from the reverse shoulder replacement that I was dreading in the post you referenced, and am happy to say that surgery went very well, no intense pain afterwards, just the same dull recovery ache feeling I had with my knee replacement surgery. PT went well, I have regained my vertical stretch about equal to my other arm, and most importantly no more constant arthritis pain. I rarely think about my shoulder during the course of the day. I am glad I had it done. I had no underlying problems, other than the arthosis, bone on bone lack of cartilage, and some frayed rotator cuff muscles, so no complications like some others here have had to deal with.
