Had my follow-up with Dr. Su today.  Everything looks excellent.  I used my phone to snap a picture of my x-ray they took in the recovery room right after the surgery and made a web-friendly version to attach here.  It isn't a very good x-ray for illustrating the unit because I was laying down on a gurney and my leg was splayed out to the side.  I would have preferred a very square, straight-on shot, but I will get that in a couple of weeks with the follow-up x-rays.

But I have proof that I am now bionic.

Kirk-

Now you can show the TSA agents at the airport what they are detecting.

It is strange to see this obvious foreign object on the x-rays.  It seems that it should feel very weird.  But everyone reports that they only way they know they have an HR is by the normal feeling they have once again.

Kirk, you have got a mobile phone that can take x-rays? I want one.
