CANCER--CHECK THE FACTS+links

[Guest guest]

Hi ladies and gentlemen,

As i rarely log on to this site these days, it never fails to amuse

me that whenever i do, there seems to be some complete idiot trying

to throw spanners in the works for all those people who choose to

take the Resurf-route .

(I am going to be frank here, and have posted some web link at the

end of my mail, with link to official studdies done on this subject)

Before having my resurf 2 1/2 years ago, i did more research than

most people i knew on here. Cancer due to metal ions was a concearn

of mine.

To be frank, personally i prefere to (slightly / possibly / probably

not) increase the cancer risk and at least have a normal pain free

life until something may or may not happen, rather than not to have

the surgery and live the life of a semi criple , in constant pain!!!

What doesn't cause cancer? well... i breathe polluted air 24 hours

per day. I drink mineral water with possibly carcenagenic minerals

(incidentally i believe even Cobalt and Chrome traces....), i drink

tap water with added chemicals, i eat vegatables that are usually

fed with chemicals and sprayed with anti bug juice, i eat meat from

animals that have been injected with allsorts of crap, i use plastic

stay fresh wrap for my sandwiches..... I buy food with added this

chemical, and that preservative and this stabiliser....GET THE

PICTURE?????

I make sushi several times per week, and saw a recent news atricle

that eating farmed salmon more than 4 times per year may cause

cancer..... go figure....

It is worth remembering a few things:-

1. Both Cobalt & Chromium are both essential metals used by the body

and are absorbed relatively easilly.

2. If we don't have these metals in our system, we actually get very

sick.

3. There are countries around the world where cattle are actually

injected with these metals, because their food does not contain

enough of them naturally, and without them, the cattle develop nerve

malfulction diseases.

4. Unlike small head diameter THR devices, the large ball resurf

device ensures that the wear and tear of the bearing surfaces is

very minimal.

5. Because of the large diameter bearing, your bodies own fluids get

between the two surfaces and create a micro film of lubrication,

further reducing the amount of debris produced.

6. As well as the above, the two resurfacing bearings are machine

polished to within microns of eachother for a perfect fit. With the

BHR, each set is polished to make a perfect match for eachother.

7. After an initial wearing in period inside the body, it is argued

that there is hardly any wear at all, due to all of the above

reqsons.

Anyway, what a complete dumb head the person was that posted the

original message..... Resurfacing principle sels itself... because

its logical!!!!

Hope this email helps a few of you that have worries.

I rarely visit this group, so please , if you want to respond, do it

to my private email. thatguyfromengland@...

Hi Richie,

Thanks for all that info on the minerals........... Given the massive

alteration in my own health since getting a hip joint I continue to think

that whatever these extra minerals are they are sure quite

beneficial......... I am still getting stopped by people who look at me

incrediously and just shake their heads at the difference in my appearance

in 2 years. Some just say if this is how happy/healthy one looks with a hip

joint prothesis they want one too.......... smile. Like it is some sort of

cure for depression and generally feeling miserable and

unhappy..........smile.

So no way would I ever like to trade mine in..........
