RE: I Have Rotting Metal in My Body
I feel for you because I was in the same situation several years ago.
I've had 4 inches log piece of metal and several screws in me for 3 years before they removed it.
But my surgeon has said while fixing my broken bone, that he'll take the hardware away in due time. That he did and I was glad I've got rid of it.
I hope it all turns out just great with your hip.
Thanks for sharing your story. I hope I can get mine out too! Was it an easy recovery? And is it true that your muscles grow after you remove the metal?
You are welcome. I hope that too.
The recovery was far easier than the recovery after the installation :) Which is obvious, of course.
