Sudden onset pain/loss ROM 6 months afer reverse shoulder replacement

Whenever there is an unexplained setback like this, my first call is to the surgeon, to be sure everything is as it should be. The second is to the physical therapist, to figure out how to get bakc on track.
Have you contacted either of them?

I will contact the Dr who took over my care today. I did not have a physical therapist and did rehab on my own. I am in a difficult financial position and out of work. It was a motorcycle accident where a lady crossed the centerline and hit me head on. Lucky to be alive. 23 broken bones, 3 weeks in the hospital, and 5 surgeries including the right shoulder and left arm and 5 vertebrae fused together. From my research it seems like a dislocation is what most likely happened. I'm back in a sling and keeping it completely immobile. I will not have the money to pay for the doctor visit for a couple of weeks anyway and hopefully it will move back into place. Has anybody in the forum experienced a situation similar?
