Guest guest Posted September 20, 2003 Report Share Posted September 20, 2003 Hi , Here are my answers to your questions. Hopefully you will get others as well, so you will have a few options. 1. Symptoms begin to disappear sometimes immediately. However, they can return after the immune system begins to function optimally again after surgery, usually around 6 weeks, and then the major symptoms begin to slowly resolve, improving over a period of several years. Not all women experience healing in the same manner, and so there is the chance that she may not feel better right away at all, but experience a gradual return to health, again, taking several years. No matter what path her healing journey takes, it will behoove you to have a great amount of patience. The immune system likes to take its own time. 2. I might suggest Dr. Don Colbert, a well known MD and family physician, and author of several books, including one called "Toxic Relief". I do not know if he relies on chelation therapy, but I do know he relies on biblical principles and getting back to basics. You can check his website at http://www.drcolbert.com/ 3. Here is our Florida list of recommended doctors. I hope you find one you are comfortable with. FLORIDA Dr. Marguerite Barnett P/S 530 S.

Best wishes to you both, Patty ----- Original Message ----- From: trekrone Sent: Friday, September 19, 2003 7:41 PM Subject: Florida Doctors for Detox / Capsulectomy/healing Dear Saline Support Group,Thank you for your intelligent answers and compassionate advice. My wife intends to remove her implants as soon as possible. We hope the chronic inflammation throughout her thoracic cavity, including her heart, will spontaneously resolve post explantation/capsulectomy. Several questions for you:1. If we are very fortunate, what is the average time for symptoms to begin to mitigate after explantation?2. Do you know of a Florida physician (M.D.) for a detoxification program notwithstanding who does not rely on chelation therapy?3. Do you know of a Florida physician with experience in capsulectomies?Thanking you for your advice in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 20, 2003 Report Share Posted September 20, 2003 By the way, the comments listed underneath the various physicians are not my comments. They were made by the original composer of this list, who I believe was Barbara Stock, and who also lives in Florida, at least the last I knew. I have not been in contact with her in quite some time. ----- Original Message ----- From: *~Patty~* Sent: Friday, September 19, 2003 8:45 PM Subject: Re: Florida Doctors for Detox / Capsulectomy/healing Hi , Here are my answers to your questions.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2003 Report Share Posted September 20, 2003 , Dr. Melhmed has a doctor in Winter Park that he recommends. I don't remember his name, but perhaps one of the girls here who was so kind to provide me with his email address can post it for you and you can ask him directly. Should you decide to contact Dr. Barnett ... she is no longer in Venice but in Sarasota and her phone number has changed as well to 927-2447 (941) You are welcome to contact me off the list for info on my personal experience with her. God Bless, ~kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
