Yes., the rod can stay in forever. That's just a fact. You can ask a surgeon if you wish
I was not going to have the rod removed, but removing the screws will perhaps make my ankle a bit less stiff. Not 100% positive, but since rod removal is a very minor surgery with very minimal risk, might as well get it done to see if anything improves.
I'm in New York btw and could have the surgery done here since Insurance would cover it. It is a very minor procedure. I want to visit Barcelona for personal reasons, so might as well kill 2 birds with 1 stone.
You are very annoying, and like to be rude on the internet. I find you very boring and tedious. You have never met me, and know nothing about me. You seem to imply that I can't say the truth, which would come as a big surprise to everyone that knows me
Furthermore, my diary contradicts this narrative. I posted negatively about Monegal WHILE I WAS IN HIS HOSPITAL WITH A BROKEN LEG. Yet, somehow even though I'm now a few thousand miles away and walking, I can't post the truth out of fear.
You obviously have some kind of obsession with Monegal. Perhaps you have valid reasons, but I don't give a about your issues.
I don't care what you say about Monegal , but don't act as if you know me or have any knowledge of my condition other than what I post.
You`re full of contradictions. If the rod can stay forever why do you want it to be removed? You said you are having the rod removed by Monegal in June. So you need to be in good terms with him to get a good price ... and nobody wants to be in bad terms withe the surgeon who will operate on them. Cooper went to a different doctor so he didn't depend on him anymore. Let's wait until rods are removed and people can tell the truth. For the moment I wouldn't trust Fibone and Monegal
