Your signatures matter - The sequel nobody asked for (but everyone needed)

Postby principles » Sun Nov 16, 2025 7:59 am

The survival study answered the device longevity question. But it raised an even bigger one.

Infections.

Those same 1,639 signatures that told the survival story? They had another chapter waiting.

Your signatures aren't done talking yet.

The infection mini-study is now published:

Interesting, in my case both my initial op and subsequent revision resulting in infections. I was lucky as they were correlated with drugs.
But scary for me and the doctor. He called daily to see how it was going and to try to persuade me towards a wash and malleable.
But I held firm and didn’t lose my original Lgx.
I have with no real proof, blame for the hospital op room and staff.
But thats a different story.
Good info here, thanks for posting

Principles Being that you are using our Signatures for data collections, what’s your thought about asking us to put in specific information? I just used the who, what, where, how, when, and why method.
Great job by the way.

@lasthope2.0

Are you LastHope, or just another very informative user?
Either way, I truly appreciate your/his efforts. You are great. Thanks for all the objectivity and information you have provided us with so far. Amazing job.

I still need to think this through. That’s a very important point and a question that needs to be addressed. It would greatly help in creating an informative dataset, allowing many different types of analysis. It would massively benefit us all.

Cbnsinpook, we never really know what goes on during surgery. I like to think that the staff does everything in their power to get us the best possible result. But that’s why, regardless of how nice they are, we should try to go to high-volume centers. They have seen it all and, even though they may be more impersonal, their experience truly counts.

Yes Principles. That's me. Too kind of you to say that. I had password reset issues with the first one. Looking forward to your creative research papers. I'm also planning to get a Titan next year. Wishing you good luck for a speedy recovery. Keep us posted on your progress!
