Guest guest Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 hi lo, i am glad to hear you are feeling better, that is awesome. i to only being 25 am very young. i only had my implants in for 6 months. how long did yo have yours in? i developed muscle and joint pain, it was very unbearable. i feel about 70 % better and will keep improving everyday. i started working out at the gym again and it felt great. what size were before and after implants? i really dont care about the boob thing, oh well if you dont have any, i am between a A and B. i like having my old self back again. lizlolosky2 <lolosky2@...> wrote: Hi Sharon,You can call me Lo, I joined the group a few months ago when I by chance and a ton of luck found this site. I was starting to get rheumatory arthritis type symptoms, first just in my hands and wrist and then everywhere. I didn't think it was my breasts until I saw a special on MTV about a girl my age (I'm only 21) who had salines and was getting very very ill from her implants and improved so much after removal. I finaly made the connection, but within the couple more months I had to wait until I could get the surgery of explant (a week ago), I got incredibly worse. I started having muscle twitches, weird light headed feelings and very strange headaches, and I would shake all the time. I urge you to get explanted because if you already have arthritis I guarantee it will make it worse. This is because you have foreign objects in your body and your body will almost inevitabily have a reaction to them sooner or later and it will be an autoimmune type response. My joint pain I blame completely on my body fighting the saline implants, since I had none at all prior to implantation, and is already improved within the week I've been explanted. I feel that it may have been damaging my nerves as well because of all the shaking, I still am getting weird heat waves in my thighs and vibrations but have heard many women on this site having all these symptoms have total recovery and extinction of them post explant. It's been emphasized throughly by these women that the capsule and scar tissue must be removed because they can harbor bacteria and the silicone shell the saline implants are made of could of contaminated the scar tissue and scar capsule that forms around the implants as well. The removal is more expensive as well as a more extensive surgery but it's well worth it in the long run to know that you are eliminating everything that comes along with those dangerous sacks, because symptoms could contiune leaving the scar tissue in. The surgery was really not a big deal, I felt in pain for about 2 days and it was very bearable with the vicodin I was prescribed and now they are just a little achy a week later. I don't feel it is a dangerous operation compared to probably any you have been through (way less painful then implantation) I completely understand self esteem issues, being young, and having been in an accident when I was younger that left me with some scars, I have always had body issues. I am going to be pretty flat again when the swelling goes completly down soon and I look forward to embrasing it because I got sick of looking at my fake boobs because they looked fake and because they have made me so miserable and sick at such a young age. I am very sorry you have been through so much with the breast cancer and arthritis but I feel the breast implants are instigating much more arthritis pain because your body is fighting your own muscles and joints! Please reconsider, I am sure it's scary to try to tell your husband that you will be flat, but what are boobs but just 2 lumps on your chest (in our cases eventually toxic lumps)? You sound like a very nice woman and I'm sure your husband is a nice man and if you explan this to your husband I think he might be very understanding that it is important to your health, and I'm sure your husband would rather have a wonderful wife who is heathly enough to enjoy things with him then an unhealthy one with a nice chest. If you have any questions just write. I hope this helped, and I hope you get on the right path to recovery.-LoOpinions expressed are NOT meant to take the place of advice given by licensed health care professionals.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Hi Sharon, I'm pretty sure I've had biotox syndrome most of my life. I started MMS for cancer but am certainly hoping other problems fade away. Wouldn't that be awesome! I do think the fact that so many of my inititial reactions to both MMS and paradophilous have been in the head and jaw areas have to do with mercury. You said you'd like to see an improvement ... so I guess you're not seeing anything yet? May I ask how long you've been taking MMS, how much, how often, etc? Are you having detox symptoms? Are you doing any other things? Have you tried paradophilous? Wishing you health! Angel " When I was young, I admired clever people. Now that I am old, I admire kind people.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Hi Angel, I am planning on getting some paradophilous at the health food store today but I am already taking a probiotic. I have been taking the MMS for about a month off and on and I have gotten up to 5 days twice a day two times a day but the diarrhea was too bad to continue. I also feel like my head will explode and I get foggy brain. I have mold in my body and as you probably know it is hard to treat. Anyway today I started 9 drops and we'll see how that goes. I wish I understood the diarrhea thing more. I believe metal play a role in all of this but I think what happens is fungi grow out of control because the body is trying to protect itself against the metal. For me that metal was nickel. My doctor however believes it was unsanitary conditions at the time of the biopsy. Best of health to you as well. I just gave 3 drops to my 80lb lab. I hope it works she has been sick.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 It is a little more complicated than that. He had an IEP in Barrow. On August 13th, I notified the s County school system, but also provided a letter from the doctor regarding the necessity to homeschool and receive home therapy services. There was no one to talk to and so I filled out an Intent To Homeschool Declaration and included him on it with my two girls. Finally, they said they were waiting on his IEP and eligibility reports to give service. They got them and they wanted me to bring him in to school for services. That is not an option and I have the appropriate letter from the doctor stating so. So, then they said they were not going to use his IEP and eligibility reports and they wanted to do their own, which according to the GA Advocacy office, they have a right to throw out his existing IEP and basically start over if I move to another county. It just does not sound right to me and I have questioned it, but the attorney says that is correct. (???) I will call Alison & ask her. If it is not contingency, then I cannot pay an attorney and maybe that s why the GAO finally helped me. We are not an institution and my son is biologically mine. LOL….maybe they are too tied up with my case because I think they only have one intern and she is helping me. I speak very little to the actual attorney (only some and he refers me to her). I did not understand why we have to dispose of te old IEP….something is quite wrong with that. > > > > Hi , > > > > I am sorry to hear about your legal issues with the school.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 well susan, I am sorry, but this is over my head. There are lay advocates, but what I was trying to say was that if you use them, I don't know if you will be any further along. We lieterally had an advocate call the county on something illegal they were doing and they just said :so " . It is like they are not afraid of the advocates, or they think there is no muscle behind them. I feel like using advocates just ran up bills and delayed the process for us. If it were me and I were to do it over again, I would find an attorney. Hopefully, will work with you on a contingency basis. Good luck. Sorry I can not help more.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Hey Sharon, I called Alison and spoke with her yesterday. She actually answered the phone when I called. She told me that the attorney I have thru the GAO is the best in the field. She also said the school is not under SB10 because we went from Barrow to s, not Barrow to a private school; therefore, SB10 does not apply. She says when you do a county-to-county move, they have the absolute right to DISPOSE of the old IEP and make a new one!!! How outrageous! But that is what my attorney told me. So, in essence, I have o run all over Georgia and get new documentation again. (Money I do not have at all.) So, apparently, I have the best attorney there is right now. It is just sad that for 7 months they have screwed my son over and gotten away with it. Really they have wasted precious time by keeping me fighting for their worthless services (at least they are worthless from what I hear from everyone in this county who has a special needs child). And from what conversations I have had with them, they know absolutely nothing about Apraxia. > > well susan, > > I am sorry, but this is over my head. > > There are lay advocates, but what I was trying to say was that if you use them, I don't know if you will be any further along.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Hi , I am so sorry. You know I hate to say this, but sb1q0 does allow for going from one county to another. Did you physically move or just move schools. is the senator who autored the bill. I have worked with his office manager. She would definately know if this is under sb10 or not. is either in Savannah or Augusta. I can't remember, but you can go to GA legislature and call and talk to her. I really feel badly for you.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 , What you reported is not exactly correct, and I just don't want others to misinterpret what was written. When you move to a new school district with an IEP, they ARE suppose to implement the previous school district's IEP. They have a right to test the child themselves and develop a new IEP though. However, during the evaluation process, they are suppose to provide the services that are outlined in the existing IEP, until that IEP is changed. Once they complete evaluations, they can meet and update/change the IEP. However, you basically removed your child from school giving up your rights to IDEA by giving intent to homeschool. Had you been working with me, I would have advised to approach this differently. I might have had you preserve your rights under IDEA by having your doctor fill out a Medical Hospital Homebound form and meeting with the school to develop a home IEP to address your child's needs, which you still could do if the medical neccesity still exists. Or, I might have advised you to provide proper 10 day private placement notice at public expense to preserve your rights under IDEA, depending on the curcumstances. Keep in mind, there is always more than one way to skin a cat..... You might call the attorney you are working with at the GAO, tell her I've advised you of this approach, and see what she thinks about using it now.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Sharon, I'm very sorry you have had a bad experiance using an advocate and appreciate you sharing your experiances and giving others advice. However, I think it is irresponsible to others on this list, esp. those who may not be able to afford to use attorneys, to insinuate that all advocates are inaffective, which is simply not true. Not all advocates work the same, have the same reputation, have the same experiance, have the same relationships with the school districts, have the same work ethics, etc. Additionally, some of us like myself, work unofficially or officially with special education attorneys, and the school districts know this about us and they do take us very and/or more serious than others. I don't want to seem like I'm bragging or promoting my own services, however just last week I simply sent a threatening e-mail to a school district for a parent who couldn't afford an attorney or advocate, and was able to get a Tribunal dismissed for an autistic high school student in south ga. One e-mail.............I think that is pretty effective..... Something else parents need to understand is that I feel a part of my job is to lay the groundwork for an attorney to come in and take over my case if there becomes a need, as I do not do Due Process hearings. Most often it is much cheaper to use an advocate in this capacity, saving the attorney fees for actually filing Due Process and taking the school district to court when it becomes necessary. Advocates can make necessary record, make initial requests, document, document and document, and ultimately be used as a witness. It certainly is viewed by the school district as adversarial to bring an advocate or attorney to your meetings. I will say however, school system employees will work with advocates and communicate with us. When an attorney is employeed by a parent, school employees shut down and are not allowed to communicate with the attorney. Everything then has to go through their school district attorneys. I have de- esculated many cases where parents initially hired an attorney, which caused the school district to clam up and stop working with the parent. Finally, advocates are much cheaper than attorneys. I certainly feel it is worth giving these professionals a chance, before spending the money for an attorney. You may just be pleasantly surprised. With all this being said, there are certainly times when parents need to hire an attorney right away. If I don't think I can appropriately handle a case, or I feel the case needs an attorney, I'm certainly going to, and have often advised parents to go ahead and look at hiring an attorney first........ What I will agree with everyone on this list, is that educators just don't get apraxia/dyspraxia, and school system therapy is typically not adequate to meet these population of students needs. I know, I have one too......

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Sharon; Just remember to go sloooow. Ease into everything slowly to let your body get used to it. We are a fast food nation and we want our cure now!, but it's not going to happen, sorry..........Every time I push it I crash. 3 weeks ago I actually thought maybe I was about cured I felt so good, even though we figured I have 42 more months to go.....so I started working out like GI Jane for 3 days in a row. Yeah, u guessed it. I'm still trying to recover. Just, really, really cherish your good days, because when u start feeling good your body is going to take that energy and start cleaning u up inside so don't get upset if one day u feel great! then the next you feel horrible. Just take it easy on both kinds of days, don't be dumb like me. Walking is great. If u are really sick like me though, I wouldn't even over do that. I love basic Yoga, it's all about relaxing and breathing and really helps me a lot. In the beginning I was so bad I would literally just throw myself on the floor and start doing breathing exercises to combat the anxiety and panic and I had to do nasal washes constantly and steam bathes just to breath. Now, I can walk to the floor, LOL, and I rarely have to rinse my nose out anymore! But my lungs still do that scary detox, where u go breathless, just hang tough. Just imagine Bee yelling at u, " U are just detoxing! Deal with it!. " Love her.......and I know my anxiety is toxins passing through, but it's still tough and scary. It will get better I promise. I think the lesson from all this we are learning, is " patience. " I am just so grateful I finally found out why I haven't felt good since I was a teenager. have u had any weird dreams yet? My ex-boyfriends brother who passed away came to me in my sleep last night (and when he was alive we never even had a full conversation) and we talked for an hour! I guess maybe I made peace with him in my sleep.......... Jeanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
