Thank you @Herniadoc for listening to patients & working hard to protect those patients at risk for mesh reactions. You rise above many surgeons with their heads in the sand. Polite way of saying heads up their body part where the sun don't shine. #meshoma hurts. Lead the way!

[Dr. Shirin Towfigh @Herniadoc]

@lliheus @lucagordini The paper’s focus is to detail our practice’s experience and shed light on different indications for mesh removal. It’s our experience that we are seeing a significant increase (now 1/3 of our patients in 2017) in patients requiring mesh removal due to an actual systemic reaction

@Corrina35038731 @PittamSharon @BritishHernia Foreign body response. It's only a matter of time that #medicaldevices like #SurgicalMesh & #breastimplants are truly exposed for the prison and sickness that they bring. Independent studies conducted.

@NonieWideman @gensurgnews @Herniadoc @BritishHernia @bruceramshawmd I know why...

It’s a very common procedure for hernia repair but the surgery often uses a type of mesh that’s been banned in Australia for other health problems. Many hernia patients have been suffering complications in silence - now they want their voices heard. #TheProjectTV

@SusanMorgan19 @Mesh_Maven I had mesh removed from 8 hernias last month because it was infected. They took all mesh and 30" of intestine cause the mesh adhered to my intestines. I'm still recovering, huge surgery

[mesh injured patients 🕊 @SusanMorgan19]

‘The doctors say they can’t take the mesh out because the flesh will have grown into it. It has very sharp edges which dig in all the time and sometimes touch nerves. The pain is gradually getting worse and there is apparently nothing they can do about it’https://t.co/LPXfA5bpxt

@BritishHernia @Mesh_Maven @ufirsthealth @des_winter @BJSurgery @eurohernias @AmericasHernia @GlobalSurg @OperationHernia It's absurd that almost 100% of U.S. surgeons/hospitals use mesh to fix #hernias. Patients unknowing of risks & #nonmesh alternatives like Dr. Robert Tomas @ufirsthealth in Fort Myers, FL. Had #inguinalhernia fixed by Dr. Tomas 2 mts ago. Feeling 100% Awesome today! #Desarda

[Mesh Maven @Mesh_Maven]

@rjbluesky @ufirsthealth @des_winter @BJSurgery @eurohernias @AmericasHernia @BritishHernia @GlobalSurg @OperationHernia Guys from all over the USA and world are flying to see Dr Tomas @ufirsthealth. I’ve been to his clinic several times and his waiting room was always packed (heard he recently had to expand it). Surgery/recovery was a piece of cake and my #desarda #hernia repair is rock solid.

[Ron Jones @rjbluesky]

@des_winter @BJSurgery @eurohernias @AmericasHernia @BritishHernia @GlobalSurg @OperationHernia Just had (6/5) the "non-mesh" "Desarda" technique for left side inguinal hernia by Dr. Robert Tomas in Fort Myers, FL @ufirsthealth! Awesome quick 30 minute procedure and eating at Denny's within 1 hr after surgery! Highly recommend the trip to Fort Myers and Dr. Tomas! #NOMESH

This is fantastic work. I’m going to send this to the Mass General “Top Doc” neurologist that labeled me hyper vigilant. This symptom list describes my life 2014-2015. Thank you @meshdevicenews 👏🙏👍🏻 https://t.co/MAWYS86T5s

Met these lovely women of @unplugtherobot1. They talked about the complications of DaVinci robotic surgery on @bleedingedgedoc. Thanks for spreading awareness and advocating for others. #DWTribeca #Tribeca2018 #MedicalDevice

[Noreen Wideman @NonieWideman]

Watch for the documentary coming in July on Netflix! If FDA isn't going to protect us, we must educate consumers to the scandalous behavior of medical device regulators. If you've been harmed, raise your voice, twitter till your fingers ache. Thank you 4 the #theBleedingEdgedoc https://t.co/TG4IE3PakS

[Noreen Wideman @NonieWideman]

@CDealessandro @Drug_watch @MichelleYLlamas @AmyZiering Shake up the Medical Device Industry and the FDA! Retweet, share with all your contacts. The Bleeding Edge Documentary should draw a little regulatory blood. @TammyJa54001341 @DeviceProblems @MeshCampaign @DanDaviesMLA @acognews

Dr. Okuyama and his team claim earlier industry-sponsored studies, which illustrate the benefits of statins, are unreliable. https://t.co/ipP37yDPQG

Study: Statins cause hardened arteries and actually worsen heart problems. https://t.co/w9MWpeXxY5 #statins #cholesterols #health
