Suggest Treatment For Defective Liner On Hip And UTI
I have metal poison composed of chromiun and cobalt. A metal liner, M-ON-M was put in my hip. It has been six years and I am never pain free. The doctor who did the implant denies that I have metaloies. He says that iwas not true. He did do a revision, he said it would not help and it did not. The pathology report indicated that There was so much friction that the metal liner caused a defective liner. I had (11.9) cobalt and (4.6) chromiun in my system. I was burning so bad in my uriary tract that I would cry because it burned so bad. Finally after three years of looking for a doctors who helped to relieve the burning by putting a pace matter in my bladder. I still have so much trouble with infection. I have spent 3 to 4 thousand dollars to pay someone to drive me to the doctor. The doctor that did the implant M-0-M redid the patholgy report. What can I do?
