Re: My Journal

Thanks merrix, I guess I’ll just ask my doc what his experience has been with using RTE’s. I wonder do docs have standard that they use for the actual implant I.e., titan vs ams.

Re: My Journal

Thanks Merckx and LS, just 1 follow up please. I guess I am confused on the RTE. my impression is that is the piece(s) that are inside your body? Why do some people have RTE’s and some don’t? Thanks again for all your help

Skier, you mentioned that you were off work for 2 weeks. I am thinking about having this done around the end of april, but I was only planning on being off for 1 week. Just wondering what others have found?
