Do you have bits of metal inside your body...?
....I do, have got a titanium plate in my jaw plus a metal link in my left elbow.
I hate operations; I actually woke up during the operation on my arm - the anaesthetist had mis-calculated. I was in terrible pain from that one.

Yes, my neck and back.
Years of punishment and the odd fall, motorbike crash etc.

Yes, two hips and a heel, just years of wear and tear from a life in construction.

A bit morbid, but I wonder what happens to them after cremation.

Apparently some are re-used in third world countries, but at least they should be sterile after the fire....
