I had 5 surgeries on my right shoulder. 2 rotator cuff repairs. Both failed and lead to AVN. Which then lead to reverse Total Shoulder Replacement. The pain is still there. University of Iowa doctors say another surgery will happen. The ball part of the implant is loose. How much more can a girl take?
