EP04 - Metal Gallbladder Clip Allergy - Routine Surgery Leads to Life-Threatening Complications
Metal allergies can be serious. It is important to be aware of the signs and symptoms
And to discuss ANY prior metal sensitivities with healthcare providers prior to any medical procedure.
In this episode of the Heavily Metalled Podcast, I’m joined by Lacee Johnsen, a Facebook friend who discovered an allergy to surgical clips, left behind without her knowledge during a routine surgery. Many have found out after the fact that leaving these clips and staples is common practice during routine surgeries such as cholecystectomies, appendectomies, colonoscopies, tubal ligations, biopsies and more. Lacee shares her inspiring story of gallbladder clip removal, overcoming metal allergies and giving back to the metal-allergic community.
We also discuss the importance of sharing stories like these to reach more people and help others going through similar struggles.
In this episode, you will learn:
--The importance of seeking a second opinion.
--Why you should trust your instincts when it comes to your own health.
--Advocating for yourself and for medical changes especially when it comes to metal allergies.
