I also think I agreed to a titanium chip in my breast to locate a spot that turned out to be nothing.

And a drill bit broke in my bone while a Dr was removing a metal plate from a bad fracture.

This was when I was a teen.

Omg, sounds like you’ve been through the wars. The titanium clips they use are usually nitinol, which is a 50/50 mix of titanium and nickel.

The biggest thing is whether you’re an inefficient detoxer or not. If you had no systemic reactions from the metal plate then you won’t be, although I do wonder why it was removed

Well im afraid to get my amalgams out now because of all the nano tech found in the dental analgesics. I have 3 left.

I got dental anaesthetic last year and my lodger got it this year with no problems. We are in nz and I figured that if there was nanotech in the dental anaesthetics that it may not have reached nz yet.

The amalgam fillings will be having a galvanic reaction with any other metals in your body too.

If you do get them removed, be sure to get them replaced with metal free ceramics. Normal composites and glass ionomer fillings have many metal salts in them including alumina.

Great piece. I had already done the dental fillings years ago, and food is my daily battle. However you brought up something I may have missed: I had a very small surgical clip left behind after a parathyroidectomy in 2021. I’m sure they won’t go back to retrieve it unless they need further work on the one gland left, so probably not much I can do about it, except continue daily detox.

Yes, surgical clips are responsible for a lot of illness. We can all tolerate a certain amount of metals before symptoms start. I still have tiny fragments of titanium alloy in my back from an implant extraction but they don’t cause symptoms in me.

Shifting from sewing things up during surgery, to using metal surgical clips has been a huge mistake for the health of many
