    Default Suspicions confermed

    People have always said about me and others that we have a screw loose. I don't know about others but for me it has been confirmed. Back in 2011 (I think the year is right) I had a pump malfunction (for those who don't understand a heart attack). This was my 3rd little problem and since I already had 7 stints I was told I was what they called a full metal jacket. This pipe was full. This time they did a double by pass. Most of the time when they do this they use wire (safety wire I hope) but in my case they used metal plates and screws. 3 weeks after the re-plumbing one of the screws came loose and turned sideways. They went back in and removed it. Now this has happened again. Hence a screw loose. I'm trying to find a doc. that will just deaden the skin area around the screw and simply cut the skin and pop the screw out. Wish me luck.

    Will pray for your full recovery.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Good luck that makes sense to me. You might have better luck talking to your local veterinarian....

    Go to a plumber and have it sweat in.

    Good luck.

    This has crossed my mind. If i could deaden the skin i would do it myself. I really don't like the term put to sleep.

    The smell of burning skin really isn't that appealing.
