Guest guest Posted April 6, 2000 Report Share Posted April 6, 2000 , Thank God everyone is OK! What a scare! I was frightened just reading along. I understand your sick feeling and your shock. You really didn't need that on top of everything else that's going on right now. I'm hoping that 's surgery is 100% successful today. I'm think about you and yours and will be anxious to read about what happened.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hi , thanks for this info... i must remember it in case i have to get my joints replaced. my knees are going downhill fast. i'm sorry that this is causing you problems - it would be awful to have to go back and get the metal joints replaced. what i want to know is, if some of the joints are replaced, what happens to the disease (RA) ? does it look for other places to take up residence in the body ? Leonie rheumatic You won't believe this Hi again, I just had two hip replacements, metal on metal resurfs. After surgery I was not feeling well, not recovering as fast as normal etc.. My doc ran some bloodwrk and my CRP and RF were positive. I recently awoke to stiff/swollen (slightly) hands and rehummy said I have RA. Okaay....I thought the timing was strange. I googled metal implants and inflamm. disease, up pops a lot of literature on problems with metal implants in people with chronic inflammation. I plan to investigate this further and see if perhaps the removal of the implant could relieve my symptoms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Leonie, Just google it. One woman was still put on DMARDS. One man had his knees removed and was fine afterward. It depends I think. What bothers me is that basically metal is unhealthy in people with chronic inflammation. I don't think I should have had these hips installed to begin with. > > Hi , > > thanks for this info... i must remember it in case i have to get my joints replaced. my knees are going downhill fast. i'm sorry that this is causing you problems - it would be awful to have to go back and get the metal joints replaced. > > what i want to know is, if some of the joints are replaced, what happens to the disease (RA) ? does it look for other places to take up residence in the body ? > > Leonie > > rheumatic You won't believe this > > > Hi again, > > I just had two hip replacements, metal on metal resurfs.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 You know, this was one of my first investigations... because I have screws, and a plastic piece & who knows what all from various surgeries. I don't have the answer.... I just wanted to say that I understand your thinking. Amy savannahhipchick wrote: > > Hi again, > > I just had two hip replacements, metal on metal resurfs.
