I am in desperate need of surgery to remove bone cement from my spine.
I cannot get it removed in New Zealand because of health policy. The bone cement will eventually kill me.
I had to flush all the vitamin c from my body to cope with the symptoms of bone cement implantation symptoms and stop eating vegetables, but that is causing other areas of my health to decline.
Are there any neurosurgeons out there in the world who may be willing to discuss the situation with me.
I’ll be beyond the point of no return if I don’t get it removed in the next 12 months. I have the support of my GP and I also have been assessed by a team of immunologists and biochemists in Germany. It was them who said they were PMMA bone cement symptoms.
So if there’s any neurosurgeons out there at all, who are willing to have a video call with me about this, please make yourself known.
The bone cement is translucent on a scan so can be localised easily

If my subscribers could please share this for maximum success in finding a neurosurgeon overseas, I would be very grateful.
I am so sorry you are dealing with this, but how fortunate you are to have figured it out.
Are you on Twitter? If so, what's your handle? OK if I copy most of this and share it on Twitter?
Omg, I’m sorry to hear this. I broke my back in 2013 and the doctor wanted to cement my crushed vertebra like it was a normal proven procedure. I decided to wait it out and healed reasonably well without surgery.
When I heard a couple years later that the procedure had been discontinued I felt an enormous amount of rage towards the doctor. I felt grief for the poor people who had trusted him. I pray that you find someone to correct this medical malpractice for you 🙏
