Hi Rashida,

I don't think this is true for all types of metal. Both of my knees were replaced in 2022, so there is plenty of metal in my legs. And I had both big toes fused and there are screws and metal plates in my feet. I'm pretty sure this is all titanium.

I had an MRI done two weeks ago for my lumbar spine. I was asked about all of my implants, but they didn't prevent me from getting the MRI.

@heyjoe415 that’s good to know! Are you sure all your joint replacements are metal? Apparently they use non-metal parts these days, too …
