Will that be problematic going through metal detectors. Wonder how it looks on the body scan at the airport?
Hopefully pain is minimum now! Heal well sir!
Very little pain now. Only when I visit my "PT".
I asked the Dr if it would set off metal detectors in court house/airport. He said, "probably", and gave me a little laminated card that says, "Metal implants in hand", and has his office phone# and an official lookin' stamp. Guess that's what I present to TSA, or the guard at the door.
Reminds me of the John Candy movie, he got sent thru the metal detector a bunch of times, he was stripped down to his scivvies before he said "oh I forgot, have a metal plate in my head"! They go UUUGH and groaned, especially all folks behind him.
Uh I went a whole year and a half of having to ask those airport cops to have me go through that beeping gate. I had a titanium web on my upper left foot since I trashed it in a car accident. They were very obliging actually.
I had the web removed after 2 years because the orthopedist said the multiple small bones were healed. I only have two screw in my heel now with no problems.
Now my foot is worse than before, collapsing arch and pain constantly. Good luck rusdi. A thumb is what makes us superior to apes and monkeys. An opposing thumb is like gold.
