I have e-mailed Rosella but have not heard back from her... Here is my question: Does anyone know anything about the staples used when our stomach was separated? I am having a MRI done on my knee tomorrow and would like to tell them if I have any metal in me. Does anyone know what our staples are made out of? Tracy 375/282/200

hi Tracy. Im not sure to be honest but I have seen them in seminars and they are small very small and double lined. They have a staple gun that shoots double rowed staples but Im not sure what they are made of. Let us know..

Good luck with your knee stuff. Hopefully you won't have to have another surgery unless you want one lol Good luck buddy.. Cindy 335/280/165
