I have a complete torn off the bone rotator cuff. Probably occurred around May. Because of emergency neck surgery, and now a cancer diagnosis it’s been put off. First chance for a RC repair would probably be February or March. By then the repair probably is not possible. From what I’ve heard RC repair recovery is less difficult than a reverse replacement. Although both are not easy.
In any case I hope your’s is fully successful and the recovery goes well. Keep us updated throughout the journey.
