Re: explanted 6 weeks ago

Cricket

Welcome to the group. It sounds like you have been through allot. I

am trying to get things straight. Are you implant free at this time

or are you still implanted? I had many of the same symptoms as you

and esp the heel thing, also told it was plantar fascitis, I believe

that that is an accurate diagnosis and I also believe that I ended up

with it due to inflammation in my body from implant illness. Anyhow,

I do believe you can get better once you are completely free of

implants. For me it took at least 6 months to a year though. I would

be patient, eat healthy natural foods, and try to take some

supplements to support your immune system. I personally would say

that you need to give your body time to recover from all it has been

through. However if you still have implants, you may continue to

suffer from these symptoms as the body has a hard time recovering

when it is being exposed to the toxins day in and day out.

good luck

Cricket I think I misunderstood your post, obviously you have

explanted. I am curious if your Dr removed all of the scar capsule

esp since you had this infection? were you given antibiotics? I would

highly recomend that you try to get on an anti yeast type diet for

awhile and take some strong supplements that will help kill yeast

like Oil of oregano and garlic. If you can tolerate the garlic raw

and fresh, eat as much of it as you can handle. There should be some

other detox ideas on this site under files section. Also Dr Kolb has

a pretty good website with a good detox for silicone poisoning, it is

at www.plastikos.com. I would check it out too. If you can still get

the capsules from your surgeon to be analyzed that would also

probably be very helpful to your situation. I believe that Dr Blais's

information is on the site here and he will be able to tell you if

you need to be on certain medication for the bacteria or fungus that

you had in your implants. I hope to hear more from you about your

situation so we can offer up better advice. My main concern is if

your Dr got all the capsule out of your body. If so then you should

be able to heal pretty well on your own with natural means. I have

found that most of my problems have worked themselves out, other than

some issues with my thyroid. It sounds like you may be dealing with

those as well with your weight gain. Have you had those labs tested

at all?

ok get back to us and let us know more so we can be of more help to

you
