Hi, I'm not sure if anyone can help me, I'm interested to find out if anyone's had anything approaching a similar experience and what the outcomes might be down the line.
I'm 36 and in the next few weeks will be having my 3rd shoulder replacement on the same shoulder and 6th operation on it. I've always been relatively fit and active, played quite a lot of sports until the injury that led down this path.
The first replacement failed after 2 years due to complications with primary glenoid dysplasia, which in turn caused a reasonable amount of damage due to metalosis.
The second replacement ended up being a ream and run owing to the damage from the metalosis to the glenoid.
Two years on from that there's been good remodelling and although the shoulder is stable finally I've got restricted ROM with reasonably significant pain. After 4 years on prescription meds I managed to transition off them around christmas with the help of CBD oil but that's now not having the effect it did have.
As I said I'd be interested to hear if anyone's had multiple replacements and any similar issues and how they've got on.
Thanks
