If it’s bone in bone, that sounds quite advanced. I work in theatres and we do shoulder replacements quite often - with very good results! Most patients say they wish they’d done it sooner - it must be terribly painful as it is

Yes it is and I think the bone moved in the last few weeks my arm hurts more than the shoulder if that sounds crazy. Going to have to have surgery I think. I postponed it 5 years should I stop the glucosamine before surgery

Susan I would check with your surgeon when you see him initially - some supplements need to be stopped before surgery because of blood sugar and clotting issues
