Subject: Summary of Inamed data on silicone gel implants

Dear Friends,

A summary of the new Inamed silicone gel implant data, as presented by the FDA on October 14, is now available on our website. You can see very high complication rates, especially for breast cancer patients. The increase in signs and symptoms of autoimmune disease two years after implants, compared to before, is surprising and worrisome.http://www.breastimplantinfo.org/what_know/oct03_summary.html

Feel free to share this information, and please take a look all around our revamped website.

We will be adding some of the testimony from implant survivors as soon as our webmistress can put it up.

Best wishes,
