Natasha,

I've got two plates, and a bunch of screws holding my left elbow together.

See: http://home.comcast.net/~brent.allsop/04_12_24_elbow1.jpg

Also, I am a diabetic, so I take insulin, and use a monitoring device to 
know how much I need to take.  They now have artificial pancreases (for 
both inside and external to the body) that do parts of this, at least 
temporarily, already, but I'm looking forward to the day when they 
perfect something that is as good as the original.  For 25 years now, 
since I was diagnosed with this, they've been claiming they'll have this 
in another 5 years.  Unfortunately, they're still saying about another 5 
years.  In another 5 years or so, I may start to believe them! I'm not 
dead yet! ;)

Thanks for that fascinating list letting me know that I'm no longer so 
unique!
