I developed YNS in January 2010 after the implant of a titanium post in some dental work. My symptoms were chronic sinusitis followed by all the nail problems. More recently I have experienced edema of the lower legs and ankles. I had no help from ENT's or dermatoligists even after enduring sinus surgery. I eventually self diagnosed after contacting Dr. Fredrik Berglund of Sweden. I sent him nail samples which tested positive for titanium. The last of metal in my dental work was removed in late January this year. I have yet to see ant dramatic improvement in my symptoms. I see from these posts that vitamin E may help with the nails but I'm seeking a way to purge the titanium ions from my body. Any advice you could provide would be be greatly appreciated. I wish you all well in dealing with this insidious malady.
