I'm so sorry. I had a hip revision due to a Smith and Nephew problem and suffered from loss of tissue and bone die to metal poisoning. I hope you have reported your experience to the FDA so they will get he data they need for a recall.

Sometimes, it's not the medical malpractice of the doctor but it can also be the device itself.

I have had two metal on metal hips manufactured by smith and nephew and they both failed...within two years of each other,So that makes two revision surgeries...I now have ceramic and plastic.Having my hip replaced 3 times in two years has been a nightmare...I now have a collapsed hip because of the muscles adhereing to scar tissue from being cut open so many times in a short amount of time..Thankyou Smith and nephew for making such an inferior product and ruining my life..I will never forget you for it

Re: Osteoarthritis drug may work too well, causing patients to overuse joints

MAKE MONEY ONLINE — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 01:22:37 -0000

I agree with you. I use Acetaminophen. Acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) can relieve pain, but doesn't reduce inflammation. It has been shown to be effective for people with osteoarthritis who have mild to moderate pain. Taking more than the recommended dosage of acetaminophen can cause liver damage.

For neutron diffraction vanadium cylinders are used as sample holders. Vanadium has a negligible absorption and coherent scattering cross section for neutrons and is hence nearly invisible in a powder diffraction experiment.

Assertions that Tanezumab worked "too well" and patients injured themselves is absurd and simple PR BS! Pfizer's own records prove it! This study included clinics without permits, known side-effects left out of the "informed consent", falsified medical records, failure to report adverse events, and MANY patients left permanently crippled while Pfizer violated their contracts to treat the injuries!

Re: DePuy refuses to compensate faulty hip implant victims for pain, suffering

DePuy compensation — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 03:46:02 -0000

The problem with these two models of DePuy hip replacement systems is that they shed a greater than usual amount of debris as the implant rubs against the hip joint into which they are implanted. People making DePuy compensation claims will notice that they experience inflammation around the hip area as the sub-microscopic particles released by the friction enter the bloodstream. These particles are known to cause infections, and the wearing away of the hip joint can lead to discomfort and the potential for the hip to fracture around the implant.

The scientific basis of the systemic side-efects sometimes observed in susceptible persons following a metal implant is described at
www.melisa.org
For those who suspect the connection between systemic worsening of health and body's immune reaction to implant material, a blood test-MELISA can be useful. MELISA test is a acronyme for MEmory Lymphocyte Immuno Stimulation Assay, a variant of well known test for detection of so called T memory lymphocyte responses.

Re: Top five signs of DePuy hip replacement failure

Brunoduder60 — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 08:41:54 -0000

I have had two total hips. 1st 2004 and 2n 2009, I'm experiencing so many of the examples given for signs and symptoms it's insane. Example today one of my Dr's sent me to the ER fearing that I may of had a blood clot in my leg due to the edema (swelling), pain, and some other things. I'm lucky it came out negative but positive for cellulitis and infection inside the vascular area. This is on the side where I have been believing that my hip has been failing for over a year. The pain is so bad I have to take many different pain medications w/o any relief of the extream pain which is called brake through pain, I'm so tired of this, I keep on telling my HMO I want this hip replaced asap, this is like trying to tell a rock to fly (lol). Im geting no where with this. I have contacted a legal firm for assistance but they won't do anything until they know the type of implant I have. Hey, if I was rich, or a CEO again this would be taken care of, but I have been protecting our home front for years as a Paramedic, and dedicated my life to the preservation of the lives of others, safety, and education of emergency situations. But, I can't continue doing this being disabled to the point that it interfears with my life. So, if I can be of assistance please contact me or if you can assist me please do so, I don't normally ask for help but I'm doing so now. I this is not addresed soon I may think of othe ways to take care of the problem. Thank you.

a DePuy ASR hip recall was issued for about 93,000 defective implants after information confirmed that the gizmo has an unreasonably high rate of hip failure, often requiring individuals to undergo a second surgical procedure to revise the original hip replacement.
