Shoulder Replacement Surgery

[boomer]

I am curious if any of Ya'll have had a Reverse Shoulder Replacement Surgery. I have had one replacement on the right that was Atomical. Now the left side needs to be done and the surgeon wants to do a reverse replacement. Supposably the reverse is faster recovery and less rehab.

I know a couple of old guy's that had the replacement surgery and swear by it. Full movement and no pain carrying on with life.

Mine was reverse and its been over 15 years, no problems, cept for ass scratching, certain angles I can't get my arm in but well worth the replacement. BTW I am 75

Thanks, the doctor said I would loose some range on motion but at 75 that seems like not a big deal. I did buy a Bidet toilet seat for the last shoulder replacement so that may help with that task in life...LOL
