I can probably still get the broken one from my first femur operation. It was a 2 piece 11MM titanium that broke right at the neck where the 2 went together. Maybe he still has the 3 pins and wire they took out from my first shoulder surgery. Then theres the now 14MM stainless 2 piece in my femur now, and about a 6" plate with 4 screws in my shoulder still. They wanted to do alot more to me, but at some point I had to say enough was enough as I wasn't really getting any better and I was tired of being laid up in bed and a wheel chair. I am about due for a hip replacement though as mine is dislocating on me every so often.

ouch, that don't sound good...

I'll take my fused foot over that no question...I get around pretty well. Just not "light footed" when dancing (which I don't do often). "Friends" call my dancing the "Sasquatch".

A few of my buddies got new hips, very happy with the results...

I don't dance anymore to say the least. Shortly after having my femur fixed I could, but not no more. It sucks because sometimes when walking the joint will hang up or my leg will just come out from underneath me and I go down like a rock. The worst is the muscle spasms in my shoulder. I look like a fish flopping on deck sometimes from my shoulder spasming.

Damn, Im feeling better now after reading this. Tore my ACL and some ligaments 6 months ago on the right and now my left knee is aching and poping...back is killing me from moving some rediculously heavy furniture a week ago. I felt like I was falling apart till reading this thread.
