Elbow Revisions

Has anyone who had a total elbow replacement gone through a revision yet? If so, how is this recovery compared to the first one? I had a revision done myself in June because of worn out bushings. I also had metallosis which developed from the ulnar and humeral components rubbing together. Has anyone had metallosis? He removed as much of it as he could, but I still have some in my system and am feeling much more sick than the last arthroplasty. I'd love to hear from anyone who has dealt with metallosis and how you did that. Thanks!
