I've got massive rotator cuff tear. DR. suggests a reverse shoulder replacement. Will I still be able to swim afterward? If anyone out there has been through this surgery I'd like to know how it impacted your swimming. I'm a 66 year old male who has been competing for 12 years.
bob,
that is a lot better info with this doc.
however, i still dont understand the need for a replacement.
more importantly, why replace the ball and socket if they are not the issue!!!
ie: its like saying you need knee replacement for an acl tear.
may i suggest you get a 3rd opinion that starts from the begining. yes its more time but you are worth it.
find the shoulder doc for cleveland indians and go see them.
