This was a year ago, so forgive me if I miss a few details, but from memory I was asking about removing the magnet that was in my finger (due to the loss of strength, puffiness and people in my thread saying to get it removed) and replacing it with an xg3.
The magnet was in one piece when it came out and at the time it felt like one solid mass, so I don’t believe it was thought to have been in pieces. That being said it was in the finger tip so I understand about being a bit cautious and refusing.
What did shock me though was the referral to someone in Netherlands.
There a few pictures in my thread that I got from the doctor when it was removed showing it’s placement and size.
