This : This is a very difficult question to answer, especially due to the fact that you have not stated exactly what problems you are having ssince the mri. This is critical in order to give you some indication as far as cause and relationship. I will state that mri's are known to cause metal clips to become dislodged or move, however this is not an absolute. Your doctor will have to do some thorough investigating and diagnostic testing to get a better understanding of exactly what is happening to you. Good luck.

No: The clips are titanium and will not react to the magnets. Rule of thumb is to wait several weeks for the clips to become incorporated so there won't be a problem.
