Bill,

If the bullet is asymptomatic, I leave it in regardless of sex or age.

Hey there,

Is there any consensus on indications for bullet removal in:

asymptomatic men (I vote leave it)
asymptomatic child-bearing age women — this is where I'm uncertain

Symptomatic, in joints/blood vessels, impinging on the SC I figure
need
to come out.

Any advice appreciated.
