anyone had an mri after their surgery? worried about all the staples, know their suppose to be titanium and be ok, but still nervous, unable to contact the surgeon r/t weekend,
Yes, I've had two in the last year, Brain and Spinal. The staples are titanium and there is no issue. Please don't worry.
Best NSV - fitting on a kid's amusement park ride with my 4 yr old grandson!
CFIDS =Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) Also dx with post-bariatric reactive hypoglycemia; and chronic gastritis (both sleeve complications). Permanently disabled.
Start weight 335, down to 218, up during gastritis. Have accepted there is no way to lose it with my hypoglycemia. Current weight 260. Currently doing 10 day sleeve reset and determined to get back down to my post surgical weight or close to it.

My brother used to have a lot of MRIs -- he always said "Nel, I'm off now to my tropical island." Your imagination can be very powerful.
I'm a doctor and was reassured by my surgeon that the titanium staples are no problem. I believe him.
Also my partner, who has titanium in her neck and ankle (she is a bionic woman) has had MRIs no problem.
You'll be fine.
