Hello, yes i did have a couple MRIs done no one mentioned anything about a cobalt/Chroumin test done. Is that something they have to look out for or a special test? or will that show up during a normal MRI? the only thing that shows up is the Iliopsoas tendonitis/Bursitis and because of all the surgeries i have atrophy in the muscle. That is what i am trying to strengthen now with PT. I will bring up the Cobalt test with my doctor.
Thank you Frank

@frankcat these test are blood test! My wife’s orthopedic surgeon declined to do test, so I had her primary order it and her levels were toxic. It happens when two medals react against each other, creating this poison within one’s body; from the implant having two different types of medal. ( titanium in Chrome)
