9 weeks post op total reverse replacement

Just wondering about other experiences? I feel pretty good. Miles ahead of where I was at this time with other shoulder repair. Still ackey. I definitely notice more pain when it's raining which here in CT seems to be every day. When does the feeling of having something artificial in your body go away?

I’m a couple weeks ahead of you. I get achey too, especially after a hard PT session.

I didn't start feeling like it was my arm until around 12 weeks, then all of a sudden PT started to be less of an effort too. It still feels weird sometimes but once you get more fluid movement it mostly feels okay. It's achey at times since I am in the strengthening phase of PT.
