srgical clips come lose!

srgical clips come lose!

A year ago i had my appendix removed.
Well last week i had REALLY bad tummy pains and the A+E doc took some x=rays etc. And said that he could see the clips on my appendix but it looked like i had some surgery down near my uterus. But i havnt. So he said that the clips may have fallen off.
I was just wandering if they should take them out or not? Do they have to take them out? Or what are the conditions here they HAVE to take them out or do they do it just by choice? Its just that my tummy pain might have been caused by them. But they don’t know!!!!
