I can't believe that surgeons ever did MoM joint replacements. Was that before they perfected the polyethylene that they use now?

I'm sorry for those of you going through this. I'd talk with a lawyer as well.

I hope you all get better.

Joe

I guess it was b4…however, soon after, I started seeing the recalls on TV…I thought “wow, I must be lucky”…I thought the recalls were due to mechanical failure…LITTLE did I know !!!
