[quote=Anonymous]Titanium is not nickel. I had patch tests prior to knee replacement and found out I was violently allergic to chrome and nickel. My knees are titanium. No problem. The marker will identify an area as having been biopsied. That is useful for radiologists reading images. You might eventually go somewhere else and why forclose that. Are you certain you do have cancer? If so, let them remove it then. If not, it's useful as described above. I did, and it was useful just before surgery to put a wire in to help surgeon find area. This may not apply to you. I am sorry you think you are heading for a mastectomy. It's natural to want to control what you think you can. But really, the marker is not something to fixate on. Best wishes. It's not going to wander through your body. [/quote]
