Reverse Shoulder Replacement New Here RSR soon

[straitsview]

Hi all, I am new here so HI! I am having a Total Reverse shoulder replacement on 4/20/23
I had a total replacement on my other shoulder about 5 years ago. That was a tough surgery for me.
I have a ton of arthritis and metal in my back and neck so movement is hard.
I was wondering what if any difference people have experienced with the reverse replacement compared to the normal replacement? Is it an easier or harder surgery? pain wise any difference ? recovery? any tips or advice? thanks in advance for any help.

@straitsview Welcome to BoneSmart! We have quite a few members who have gone through RSR. Here's a link to the list of threads on members who were recovering. Most are now back to living without shoulder pain so haven't posted in awhile. But you will find a couple of recent threads.

If you post on their threads, feel free to tag them so that they see your post. Just put the @ sign in front of their name like I did above.
