Shoulder Replacement
Posted: 05-07-07 22:31pm

MY HUSBAND HAS ARTHRITIS IN HIS SHOULDERS, AT THE LAST X RAY IT SHOWS THAT THE SHOULDER IS BONE ON BONE, HE HAS BEEN TOLD THE ONLY SOLUTION TO HIS PAIN AND DISCOMFORT IS TO HAVE A SHOULDER REPLACEMENT.

HE IS 58 YEARS OLD AND STILL RESONABLY ACTIVE, HOWEVER, HE HAS RETIRED FROM WORK.

CAN ANYONE TELL ME IF THEY HAVE HAD THIS OPERATION AND THE RATE OF THE SUCCESS

I had one 2 years ago and I am very happy I did it.I was up to 100mg of morphine a day for the pain, I don't even need aspirin.

The only advice I can give is you have to be very motivated.There is a lot of rehab and its a continuing thing.You have to stretch everyday and keep the joint moving. There is some pain and occasionally you will have a few bad days strung together.If your husband wants to talk PM me and i'll give you my number .
