I most likely am not getting implants so you don't need to sell me on it ok! I really don't think I want to risk it plus the hassles and all. I am just surprised by the lack of Dr's that really stick up for this if they all know the risks. That is why I really like Dr Melmed's attitude, he told me he would not implant me, that told me allot about his character! I mean that matters to me and also Dr Feng was adamant about not implanting me either. They both want to do lifts on me and I just happen to be able to go to Texas easier than Ohio.

I am thankful to have found these Dr's, so amazing. I almost got duped into getting implants! I feel fine as far as my thyroid goes, but I know all about how it affects your hair and nails I have very thick hair but it was falling out by the handfuls and then the heart palpitations too. It was horrid. I am gald I never needed meds and that it all went away on it's own. I think i am fine now I feel fine.

I won't ever go back to starving myself either, that may have been part of what messed my body up the most. Being anorexic and bulemic for those years when I was young in high shcool. I eat now, healthy but I ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO EAT, it is so bad what starving can do to you and that also could damage your heart and other organs. my

Eating disorders may be what messed up my thyroid and it did not come out till pregnancy.

thanks

Stacey, but I have read a lot on thyroid disease, and having any type of thyroid aliment after pregnancy, means you are susceptible for future thyroid issues. At a higher risk. That is an area you are weak in. Same with gestational diabetes, the likely hood of getting or being prone to diabetes has been set after a bout with it in pregnancy. It is merely showing what, you at your weakest point (pregancy) is prone to.

Breasts and the thyroid are interelated. If you have one cancer, for instance like breast cancer, you are at a higher risk for thyroid cancer, and vice versa. I can see now, why implants would throw my body out of whack with my thyroid. They are both hormonally driven.

Also, normal women, after the age of 45 have a 1 in 3 chance of having thyroid issues, so implants being known to be connected to cause thyroid disease is just taking another risk .Stacey, thyroid issues can affect your heart, hair, nails, skin, cardiovascular, neurological, immune system and mental thinking, as well as throw off metabolism and make life really miserable I just wouldn’t risk it, it was so hard for me to take care of my 3 year old at the time, when I was ill my last year with implants And I am not a sick type of girl. I work out, laugh a lot, have many friends and was so depressed I got so sick and couldn’t live that way! ---- Original Message -----

Going to lunch I did not see your name just this one so I will address you by that .... I wanted to tell you that it has been brought up that I had thyroid disease but I did not have an actual thyroid disease. I had what is common to women after they have a baby. It is temporary and goes away usually within a few months.

I have no disease and was only temporarily thrown into a thyroid crisis because of hormones or something being out of sync. My Dr told me this happens to a large percentage of women and usually resolves itself with out medication or further treatment. This was the case with me. I am not saying that this would or would not make me a bad candidate for implants, I am just trying to reiterate that because I had a temporary thyroid problem does not mean I have thyroid disease for life. I hope this makes sense now to you all. I have not had a thyroid issue for years now, since my youngest son was a baby. He is 4.

I have recently read that both under- and over-active thyroids are worsened by implants, that those of us with these conditions are much more prone to develop fibromyalgia if we are implanted and that this fibromyalgia will be considerably harder to treat/deal with due to this combination of auto-immune thyroid condition and fibromyalgia (our pain will be chronic and will be less responsive to therapy). Soooooo, definitely those of us with these conditions should NOT be candidates for implants.I hope that/wonder if PSs are telling women about this.

Stacey,

I am glad I don't have thyroid problems. That is too bad about your thyroid. My brother in laws wife has hashamiotos and something else with her thyroid. She seems to be alright now. Elaine DelGato <stacydel34@...> wrote:
