The dangers of PMMA, known as Methacrylate

“Methacrylate is a synthetic product, it is a plastic that has been used for more than 100 years in medicine to cement hip prostheses, for example. And in small proportions it has also been used as a filler material for 25 years, causing few reactions “, the surgeon began to explain.

However, “when one places a large amount of Methacrylate, the body identifies it as a foreign body and manufactures a granuloma around that foreign element, which is a chronic inflammatory reaction with inflammatory cells.”

“Then the granuloma takes on a function similar to that of the parathyroid glands -they are the ones that produce the balance of calcium in the human body- and these granulomas, by supplanting the parathyroid glands, create a kind of similar hormone that causes calcium to be reabsorbed from the bones and that calcium passes into the blood, circulating through the blood,” added the professional.

In other words, the kidneys stop fulfilling their function of filtering the blood and for that it is necessary to use external filters that replace the internal filters that stopped working,” concluded Blugerman.

This machine that I have connected to me does the work of the kidneys. So feeling grateful. Without this machine I could not live. I do this three times a week, four hours. Until I can transplant myself“, maintained the former vedette.
