***Many WONDERFUL, supportive special-interest communities exist for metal allergies and diet, hardware issues, medical devices, etc., online and on social media. They have many resources and often act as a collective think-tank. I owe many parts of my recovery to knowledge obtained in such groups. Search keywords to join these groups and find your tribe!***
Dr. Scott Schroeder, DPM, FACFAS
Dr Schroeder has been a Foot & Ankle Surgeon for over 30 years. He has surgically placed thousands and thousands of metallic implants over his career. He became more and more aware of reactions to these implants as time went on. Not just local reactions, but disabling systemic reactions, necessitating the need to remove the implants. Over the past decade or so Dr Schroeder has removed over 1,000 implants in over 400 patients. He presented to the FDA in 2019 on the Systematic Effects of Metal Allergies. He has presented in London and Australia and numerous other international conferences around the world. In his surgical center he tested significant galvanic current changes before and after removing metal implants from the body in relation to dental metals. He is in the process of writing up this study with colleagues. He is in contact with Doctors and Scientists around the world regarding metal allergies and reactions.

Hi there, born and raised in Czech Republic, now living in Canada, Vancouver. I used to play handball for 18 years, this sport is very well known in Europe, way less in North America. Back in Czech I was studying Mechatronics, no it does not have anything in common with transformers:) I brought my technical background to Canada and now I am technical adviser in food packaging machinery world. I have wonderful wife who i met here in Canada, she is from UK so my rusty English can thrive:) I would like to educate myself at metal sensitivity world as I have a nickel allergy and likely I will have to have a surgery in the future for my achy back. Thanks for listening.
