Thinking about it but I have concerns.

Infection: for some reason a good percentage of patients come away with an infection according the all knowing Net.

Rehab: I haven't been able to raise my arms as in a victory salute for years. Haven't been able to throw a ball for 20 years. What are they gonna expect? That I'll be shooting 3 pointers in a year? My muscles and ligaments are not gonna want to stretch to a point that they've not seen in a quarter of a century. At least that's what I think.

Limits on lifting: sort of moot point but I can lift 50 lbs. with both arms if I have to. Doc says the lifetime limit on the new shoulder is 20. Hell, a small dog weighs 20.

Hammering and jarring: I have no idea about what I will be able to tolerate but as many of you know, I've got a hammer of some sort out of the tool box nearly every day. (I pay dearly for that.) Will that compromise the shoulder after due rehab?

I probably will need to do this and it might as well be sooner rather than later as I'm 72.
