The case of the Serbian Binghamton University student getting a plea deal IRKS me to no end. Hillary had her hands in this along with ChuckieS. He nearly killed a young man.

i’m not lame either, btw. had the appt with the orthopod this AM. he said i look great. had the xrays but don’t even need the blood test, just precautionary xrays once per year. he said this hip had a 13% fail rate in Europe, less in the US. Other manufacturers have not recalled with even higher failure rates. He said problems occurred within the first 2 years, and i am at almost 3 and 4 years on my two. so he foresees no problem but will do due diligence in monitoring it.

That’s great news, xs!!! My Orthopod appt. is next Tuesday, and I’ll be asking about it. From what I’ve read, it’s ball joints smaller than 50mm that are recalled, and most men have larger joints.

To: Cyber Liberty
That’s exactly right, he mentioned no men had problems bc they had bigger joints. Mine are in the range of the recall, and bases on the date he said my first one would have been one of the first of this brand he had used. Again.the thinking being this was good fit for younger, more active people.
