Default more titanium

I know you guys are not ame (well maybe some) but I had a question to see if anyone could give me a little insight.

About 11-12 years ago I had to have a titanium rod put in to my femur due to a malignant bone tumor.

The cancer has been cleared and i have full use and range of motion of the leg. Have recieved a third class with no problems. Would my condition disqualify me or make it difficult to get the first class?

any info would really help to ease my mind.

You too?? We recently had someone else full of titanium. What does your own AME say?
