Colorado recommendation:

Dr. Jason Michael Jennings at Colorado Joint Replacement in Denver
https://www.centura.org/location/colorado-joint-replacement

He did a revision of the eighteen year old metal-on-metal hip in February of this year and replaced the metal components with non-metal.

A novel and effective patient medical vetting system at Centura caught a problem that delayed the surgery till that problem was better diagnosed and a mitigation plan put in place.

After surgery heavy metal levels have dropped. Both Chromium and Cobalt are markedly reduced five months post surgery.

We also was recently tested for Metal Allergy from Orthopedic Analysis lab in Chicago. Results of the Orthopedic Panel 2 measured all values in the Non Reactive range.

Recovery has been good, much easier than original surgery.

We have nothing but praise for Dr. Jennings and Centura hospital.

Glad to see you got this taken care of, and that it was uneventful. The drop in your metal levels is typical for most of us.
