<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collecting Nut, post: 6315501, member: 74863&quot;]True story: My wife and I were at the beach in the Gulf of Mexico 3 days later my right foot started hurting. I knew the pain and what it was but each day it got worse and I couldn&#039;t walk that good.</p><p><br /></p><p>I made a doctor appointment with a new surgeon as soon as we returned. I saw him the next day. He asked what was wrong. My reply was I need surgery, then I proceeded to be specific. When I finished he stated, &quot;I&#039;m the doctor, not you so I&#039;ll decide if you need surgery.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>He examined my right foot and the great toe, then he said he needed X-rays. I hobbled over to that area and they took them. He looked at them and said, &quot;Sir, you are correct. You need surgery asap.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>A few days later the implant I had was removed and a new one was installed. Now I have plastic and metal in the foot but I can walk good. He asked how I knew and I replied, &quot;I&#039;ve been through this before. It&#039;s not my first time. I also have 2 implants in my left foot.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I have 3 implants in my right foot and one of the implants shattered. The X-ray showed the broken implant but when they operated it had broken in 7 large pieces. The doctor said he had to vacuum the area to get all the small fragments.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
